ReInvent Schools Las Vegas is based on a National Community School Model, where educators and community partners align assets and expertise in order to improve student success.

ReInvent Schools is an intentional school transformation strategy concentrating on expanded learning opportunities, health and social services, family and community engagement, as well as early childhood development.

Through the use of AmeriCorps Tutors and Student Success Members, more than 8,855 students receive support at 12 elementary schools and one middle school. ReInvent Schools are showing improvements in student attendance, reading proficiency, parental involvement, and reduced disciplinary referrals; these outcomes are leading to promising academic improvements.

Each school year begins with an energizing, motivating ReInvent Schools Training Summit, for the full spectrum of school staff, which reinforces the core set of shared operating principles. Together students and families are motivated and engaged in learning both in school and after-school.
