This session is required for all teachers who are new to Nevada in the fall. Peer Advisors will walk new teachers through the ins and outs of each building, using our NCSD 101 documents as the foundation.
This 90-minute session will focus on connecting classroom learning with authentic community experiences. Participants will explore the benefits of community partnerships, review examples of successful school-community collaborations, and identify opportunities within their own curriculum for meaningful project-based learning. Through guided brainstorming and discussion, attendees will generate project ideas and consider potential community partners who can help bring those ideas to life. Participants will leave with practical strategies, actionable next steps, and a plan for creating engaging learning experiences that strengthen connections between students, schools, and the community.
