The Clark County School District, the nation's fifth largest school district, has been awarded a $5,286,668 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Magnet Schools Assistance Program (CFDA 84.165). The funding will support the establishment and operation of magnet schools in the district, with the primary goal of promoting voluntary desegregation through specialized academic programs, educator training, facilities improvements, student transportation, and other activities that foster racial and socioeconomic diversity. The grant will enable the district to create innovative educational offerings and curricula, such as STEM, arts, dual language immersion, and career/technical education pathways, to attract students from diverse backgrounds and reduce minority group isolation. The project period is from October 1, 2023, to September 30, 2024.
