STUDENT ATTENDANCE:

Accurate attendance records are a very important part of 21st CCLC grant. Our effectiveness as a summer Camp program is measured partly by how many students attend regularly. Consequently each instructor will be provided with a roster of students to record attendance. Attendance should be turned in DAILY and will be monitored by the Summer Camp Coordinators. Paraprofessionals will support as needed.

PRE & POST TESTING:

As part of the evaluation process, the 21st CCLC grant is interested in finding out to what degree our students are being affected by the academic and opportunities offered at the site. Each instructor will be responsible for administering a pre and post-test that are part of the curriculum to evaluate what the students have gained through their course. The pre and posttest should be the exact same document for this would truly test the difference in skill mastery over the period of the course. If you need assistance in administering your tests, please seek help from the Summer Camp Coordinators. Paraprofessionals will support as needed.
