The NC State University 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) program provides FREE out-of-school time programming for high school students at Franklinton High School and Vance County High School. 

Funded through a Title IV, Part B grant under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), the 21st CCLC program is administered in North Carolina by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI). 

The program supports academic enrichment, STEM, and other enrichment opportunities including college and career preparation, youth development, and meaningful family engagement beyond the regular school day. 

At NC State University, our program places a strong emphasis on academic enrichment, career and competencies and career readiness, exposure programs including art programming, healthy & active lifestyle, parenting skills and family literacy, and STEM exposure. These real-world experiences help students discover their interests, build skills, and prepare them for what comes next, while high-impact tutoring helps to keep the students at grade level in their academics.———–> UPCOMING EVENTS
