21st Century Community Learning Centers

The 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) program is a federally funded initiative offered through BGCCC. It provides free, high-quality academic support and enrichment for students who are performing below grade-level benchmarks and need extra help to catch up, thrive, and stay on track for promotion and graduation.

How 21st CCLC Differs from Clubhouse Programs

While our Naples (Nichols) and Immokalee (Bolch) Clubhouses are open to all members, 21st CCLC programs are eligibility-based and operate in partnership with the school district. These programs specifically target students identified as needing additional academic support and provide them with no cost to families.

What 21st CCLC Offers

Academic Support

Daily homework help, tutoring, and teacher-led interventions strengthen skills in reading, math, and science.

Targeted Enrichment

STEM, arts, and wellness activities reinforce classroom learning in fun and engaging ways.

CCLC Locations

School-Based Sites

Highlands Elementary, Village Oaks Elementary, Immokalee Middle, Immokalee High, Eden Park Elementary, Pinecrest Elementary, and Lake Trafford Elementary.

Nichols Club On-Site Program

In addition to open Clubhouse programming, the Nichols Club hosts a 21st CCLC program that specifically serves members from Calusa Park, Shadowlawn, Parkside, and Avalon Elementary Schools.
