Grant Overview
South Carolina operates after-school programs under a 2023 statute that ties state education funds to county poverty indices published by the Department of Revenue. Counties with child poverty above 22 percent receive priority scoring; these include Allendale, Bamberg, and Dillon, which together contain fewer than 40,000 school-age residents yet account for disproportionate Title I allocations. Applicants must therefore submit the most recent county-level poverty table rather than statewide averages.
Programs in the Lowcountry must coordinate with existing 21st Century Community Learning Centers funded through the South Carolina Department of Education, while Upstate applicants face different constraints around transportation because many students live outside incorporated towns. Charleston County requires proof that after-school sites are within one mile of public housing developments served by the housing authority bus routes. In the Midlands, applicants document access to existing school nutrition kitchens for snack preparation under USDA after-school snack guidelines.
Each application must include baseline assessment scores from the prior academic year for the specific schools where programming will occur. Mid-year progress reports use the same state formative assessment tool rather than vendor-specific instruments. South Carolina’s Department of Social Services cross-checks family income eligibility against SNAP and TANF records, creating a verification step not present in neighboring states. Unlike Georgia applications, South Carolina requires site-level memoranda of agreement with county school district transportation departments before any off-site enrichment activity receives approval.
