LAS VEGAS (KLAS) – Several early childhood centers across Nevada are set to receive more than $5 million in scholarships to help families in need.
United Way of Southern Nevada and United Way of Northern Nevada and the Sierra have selected 32 centers to receive $5,828,130 to help with the enrollment process by allowing selected children to attend preschool for free.
“We have seen the positive impact this program has had on the lives of thousands of working families and teachers who have the resources to support their students,” said Julian High, President and CEO of the ‘UWSN. “We are humbled by the confidence that the Nevada State Department of Education has placed in our organization through this program.”
Bursaries were awarded through participating centers to needy families with four-year-old children. All centers participate in Quality Assessment Improvement Systems (QRIS) created by the Nevada Department of Education.
