The Challenge in Clark County School District
The Clark County School District (CCSD) is the 5th largest
school district in the country, serving nearly 300,000 students.
In 2001, Superintendent Carlos Garcia sought a breakthrough
program that would help the district’s lowest performing schools
increase student achievement.
EdisonLearning was selected to partner with six of the district’s
lowest performing schools to help achieve this goal. The
schools chosen were Marion Cahlan, Crestwood, Lincoln, Ann
T. Lynch, John S. Park and C.C. Ronnow Elementary
Schools, These schools had a high number of Limited English
Proficiency (LEP), as well as a large percentage of Free and
Reduced Lunch (FRL) students.
Working with EdisonLearning, the schools utilized the
EdisonLearning® School Designs model The School Designs
model is a comprehensive approach to education that addresses
the entire learning experience and how it is delivered. The
model benefits from EdisonLearning’s 20 years of experience in
helping schools succeed.
With EdisonLearning as a supportive partner, these schools have
not only been able to increase student achievement, but also
create a learning environment that fosters student success,
promotes greater school choice, supports community
involvement and provides an education enhanced by the benefits
of teacher satisfaction and parent engagement.

Working together for student success
Our children’s ability to meet the expectations of a rapidly changing
world relies on an education where they can reach the highest levels
of achievement. EdisonLearning partners with schools to provide
solutions that inspire students to think, learn, and succeed – and
prepare them to meet their full potential and the expectations of the
21st century workplace.
In 2010 the EdisonLearning contract in Clark County was up for
renewal. Drastic budget cuts in CCSD risked the resigning of the
contract by the District Board. EdisonLearning CCSD schools had
the opportunity to present to the board, key decision-makers and
influencers the value or maintaining the EdisonLearning partnership.
A comprehensive brochure was composed and designed to present
the significant results achieved in the cluster of EdisonLearning
partnership schools. Included in the brochure were individual
one-pagers that detailed the results in each individual
EdisonLearning partner school.

Key Messaging
• EdisonLearning Partnership Schools in CCSD show consistent
gains in students meeting and exceeding standards on Nevada
CRTs.
• Students attending EdisonLearning Partnership Schools show a
significantly higher rate of gain across the entire student body
including the challenging LEP and FRL populations.
• Out of 36 measurable areas of achievement gains,
EdisonLearning Partnership Schools in CCSD exceed those of
Empowerment and Comparable Schools 94% of the time.
Of those instances in which Partnership School achievement
gains do not outweigh those of Comparable the majority of
those differences amount to less than 2 points.
