Extended learning opportunities (ELOs) have gained traction in Maine and nationally as a means for students to develop "college, career, and life" skills through out-of-classroom experiences. As ELOs are not structured or regulated by the state, they vary significantly in range, scope, and access. This report offers insight into wide-ranging ELO work happening in schools across Maine, as well as in-depth profiles of two exemplary ELO sites. The study found that ELOs serve a highly diverse range of needs and purposes, expanding opportunities for students to develop essential life skills through out-of-classroom experiences. Even within a single school, ELOs differ according to student need and interest, local partner capacity, and school policy. Some ELO experiences are structured and consistent across groups of students - such as semester- or year-long internships with local employers; others are specifically tailored to individuals, such as independent research studies focused on a student's career interest.
