The Public Education Foundation partners with the community and the Clark County School District to meet immediate, critical education needs that will strengthen our public schools. For more than 30 years, the Public Education Foundation has brought the community together to support our public schools. In partnership with the Clark County School District and districts across the state of Nevada, w
e help guide effective investments in education to meet immediate, critical needs of our students, families, and educators. Thanks to our many community partners, we work to ensure every public school student can succeed through the following programs:
Scholarships Plus provided $6 million in college scholarships this year to help students pursue their dreams of attending college or vocational school. The PEF Teacher Superstore (formerly the Teacher EXCHANGE) provides school supplies to teachers to reduce their out-of-pocket expenses. Teacher Pathway recruits, supports, and retains local diverse, qualified individuals committed to a teaching career in CCSD. This “grow your own” teacher training program focuses on addressing Clark County’s chronic teacher shortage. Artists With Kids inspires CCSD students to express their creativity and foster a lifelong engagement in the arts by creating experiences that connect them with community artists. Building on the successes of the past 30 years, PEF is continuing its collaboration with community organizations dedicated to improving public education and introducing new programs to address the greatest needs of our public schools.
