    A REPORT ON THE FOUNDATION’S INVESTMENTS 2000–2014 By Anne Mackinnon february 2015 Citizen Schools Reaching for Scale and National Impact Citizen Schools was created in 1995 with a vision for giving middle school students a radically new kind of afterschool experience. Unlike conventional programs, which simply kept kids busy and gave them a place to do their homework, Citizen Schools engaged participants in a dynamic program of intensive, hands-on learning activities, or “apprenticeships,” led by a combination of energetic, motivated staff and knowledgeable volunteers, or “citizen teachers.” To founders Eric Schwarz and Ned Rimer, the out-of-school-time hours were an immense resource for educating young people and building community, particularly in low-income neighborhoods. Their goal was to put those valuable hours to use. The model caught on in Boston, and Citizen At about that time, Eric Schwarz, Citizen Schools’ Schools grew steadily in its first five years.

    Expanding Learning Time How the Edwards Middle School in Boston partnered with Citizen Schools to transform the learning day by KATE CARPENTER BERNIER APRIL 2 0 0 8 "There are few more promising strategies for helping all children get ahead in today’s global economy than expanding learning time. It gives students the time not only to master the basics, but also to expand their horizons through art, music, physical education and other activities. It gives teachers additional time for collaboration and planning to improve instruction. The early results of the Expanded Learning Time Initiative here in Massachusetts are impressive and show real promise in preparing all children for a lifetime of success. I believe what we’re doing with expanded learning here in Massachusetts is a model for the nation."
