DYCD Learning Lab Services
Learning Bridges is open to 3-K through 8th grade students enrolled in a DOE school or contracted early childhood program. This includes District 75, 4410 programs, 853 programs, contracted 3-K, Pre-K, and EarlyLearn programs, and DOE elementary and middle schools.
AND IT'S ALL FREE...
so how does it work?
Learning Bridges is designed to serve families in blended learning who need 5 days of care. As of January 2021, sites with available seats may enroll children enrolled in 100% remote learning if care is still needed. Priority for placement is given equally to:
​
-
Families in temporary housing, including shelters and hotels
-
Children of NYCDOE school and program staff, including staff of Learning Bridges sites and other contracted early childhood providers
-
Families residing in NYCHA developments
-
Children in family foster care or receiving other child welfare services
-
Students with disabilities
-
Children whose parent/guardian is an essential worker or was previously enrolled in a Regional Enrichment Center (REC)
​
Families will receive placement at the closest site within a reasonable distance that still has seats available.
