Virginia Out-of-School Time Town Hall
On Tuesday, July 21, 2020, close to 250 out-of-school time professionals and advocates joined Dr. James Lane, Superintendent of Public Instruction at the Virginia Department of Education to discuss out-of-school programs partnering with schools during reopening. Facilitated by Shanelle Ebanks of the Richmond Out-of-School Time Alliance and Blaire Denson of VPOST, hot topics included different reopening scenarios, funding and the role of the out-of-school time community.
