Abstract	Districts and schools are receiving once in a life-time funding through the American Recovery Plan (ARP) to address the learning needs of students over the next few years, especially those who have been most impacted by a year of remote or hybrid learning. State education agencies (SEAs) including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, outlying areas, freely associated states, and Tribal sovereign nations, and local education agencies (LEAs) across the country should be strategic in their use of funds to make a meaningful, real impact on accelerating student learning. This is especially important for those experiencing larger gaps as compared to their peers due to disrupted learning during the pandemic. After-Action Reviews (AARs) on summer learning programs, led by SEAs, LEAs, schools, or partnering organizations who provide summer learning services, can help users identify and apply lessons learned from this year's summer recovery programs to accelerate learning in the future. Partners or vendors can hold their own AARs to improve their practice for future years and contracts as well. The AAR can be extremely helpful in identifying lessons learned from summer recovery and acceleration programs, which then inform strategic decisions for future school year and summer learning opportunities. This brief presents an adaptation of an "After-Action Review Guide" (ED609070) and an "After Action Review Guide for Learning Recovery" (ED615632) that focuses specifically on key questions and data that SEAs and LEAs, including Tribes, can use to reflect on this summer's learning recovery and acceleration programs. The findings can then be used by leaders to plan for school-year programs and subsequent summers. Applying lessons learned also helps guide the use of American Recovery Funds, so they are used strategically to achieve intended results. (ERIC).
