The program targets students in grades three through eight and will operate at three schools—School No. 6, School No. 20, and School No. 22—during the academic year for 36 weeks from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., and for an additional four to six weeks in the summer from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. The services must align with STEM education goals while also providing enrichment activities that support student development and engagement outside of regular school hours. Proposals must be submitted in response to RFP 18-27, with a deadline of July 17, 2026, and are being managed by the Division of Planning, Research & Evaluation within the New Jersey state agency framework. Interested organizations should direct inquiries to Danielle Singleton, Teacher Coordinator, or Maritza Colon-Montanez, Purchasing Manager, at the provided contact information. The contract will be executed in Passaic, New Jersey, with all services performed at the designated school sites, and agencies are expected to demonstrate capacity to implement high-quality after-school and summer programming consistent with the FFS mission.
