Overview
The Nevada Department of Education (NDE) prioritizes enhancing student achievement by bolstering language and literacy outcomes for all students. This commitment is reflected in the adoption of several key initiatives: the Nevada Academic Content Standards for English Language Arts (ELA), aligned with the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), the Nevada Multi-Tiered System of Support Core-Elements, and Nevada's Read by Grade 3 Act (AB 289). These comprehensive strategies work in concert to ensure that all Nevada students graduate with the essential literacy skills necessary to thrive in a globalized world, pursue their aspirations, and make meaningful contributions to both Nevada and the broader community.
