Clark County School District, Nevada
 Clark
County School District has implemented several initiatives in the
past few years. They have an ongoing autism project that consists
of a relationship with the Autism Partnership and involves a two-day
lecture, a four-day hands-on experience, and follow-up visits. The
program also offers weekend workshops and meetings to provide extra
assistance.
Other
programs they have been working with include Project Life, Project
Stars, and Read 180. Each has been in the schools for about three
years. Read 180, a computerized skills-based reading program, was
implemented in the secondary schools and is now being implemented
in elementary schools. The student support services division collaborated
with the general education division to finance the implementation
of these programs in schools. The systems design and staff development
department and the curriculum and instruction department collaborated
on training by providing staff development workshops; Read 180 is
a commercial program purchased by the district.
The
new superintendent also has a new initiative, A+, which seeks to
improve Achievement, Access, and Accountability. The student support
services division is trying to align A+ with efforts toward building
capacity and strengthening the literacy initiative.
