VPOST, the Virginia Partnership for Out-of-School-Time, is a statewide public-private partnership dedicated to developing and expanding academic, social, emotional, and physical supports and services to school-age children and youth across the Commonwealth of Virginia during out-of-school time hours:
before-school, afterschool, vacation periods, and summer!

The Quality Check Tool
Advocacy Guides
$9 Million for OST
VPOST’s newest tool is The Quality Check, a companion to the Quality Standards. It offers OST professionals a clear, step-by-step process to reflect on how their program lives out the Standards, celebrates successes, and uses a team-focused approach to achieve even higher quality.
VPOST is committed to amplifying the voices of youth, families, and program providers to ensure every young person has access to quality out-of-school time opportunities. Our guides are designed to help individuals prepare, share, and elevate their stories.
