Section 8483.76.

(a) A school that establishes a program pursuant to Section 8483.7 or 8483.75 is eligible to receive a supplemental grant to operate the program in excess of 180 regular schooldays or during any combination of summer, intersession, or vacation periods for a maximum of 30 percent of the total grant amount awarded, per school year, to the school.

(b) An existing after school supplemental grantee may operate a three-hour or a six-hour per day program, but is not eligible to receive additional grant funds for the purpose of operating a six-hour per day program pursuant to this section. If the grantee operates a six-hour per day program, the target attendance level for the purpose of grant reductions pursuant to subparagraph (A) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) of Section 8483.7 shall be computed as if the grant award were based upon the lesser of fifteen dollars ($15) per day of pupil attendance or 30 percent of the total grant awarded to the school per school year. It is the intent of the Legislature that a grantee who serves additional pupils by operating a longer day program not receive additional funding for this purpose.

(c) A supplemental grantee that operates a program pursuant to this section may change the location of the program to address the needs of pupils and school closures. The program may be conducted at an offsite location or at an alternate schoolsite. The supplemental grantee shall give notice to the department of the change of location and shall include a plan to provide safe transportation pursuant to Section 8484.6.

(d) A supplemental grantee that operates a program pursuant to this section may open eligibility to every pupil attending a school in the district. Priority for enrollment shall be given to the pupils enrolled in the school that receives the grant.

(e) A supplemental grantee operating a six-hour per day program shall provide for each needy pupil at least one nutritionally adequate free or reduced-price meal during each program day.

(f) A supplemental grantee that operates a six-hour per day program is required to submit, for prior approval by the department, a revised program plan that includes all of the following:

(1) A plan for provision of the free or reduced-price meal required by subdivision (e).

(2) An attendance and early release policy for the program that is consistent with the local educational agency's early release policy for the regular schoolday.
