Integrated Implementation of Nevada Literacy and Intervention Programs

August 1, 2015

Three major K-12 initiatives approved by the 2015 Legislature include: Read by 3 (SB391), Zoom Schools (SB405), and Victory Schools (SB432). These three programs share many common goals and target similar populations. This policy brief recommends a framework for implementing these efforts in a comprehensive and integrated manner to maximize the impact on student achievement. It also includes specific implementation recommendations for the State Board of Education, Nevada Department of Education, and governing boards of school district and charter schools.
