The NJDOE is committed to supporting LEAs with their learning acceleration efforts. While summer learning has always been important, COVID-19 has heightened the need for LEAs to create and maintain high quality summer programming. In September of 2021, the NJDOE created the Office of Learning, Intervention, and Support (OLIS). The focus of OLIS is to build the capacity of LEAs to implement innovative and sustainable summer and extended learning experiences as well as innovative daily interventions to address learning acceleration and promote equitable access to these opportunities for every student. In the Spring of 2022, OLIS delivered three Technical Assistance (TA) workshops. Detailed descriptions of each TA are provided in the NJDOE Broadcast announcing the release of this guide. The TA workshops were recorded for your convenience and are linked below:

• How to Accelerate Learning in the Summer
• Leveraging Partnerships with Community Based Organizations
• Innovative Uses of Federal Funds
