Programs and Initiatives

Education Alliance programs, initiatives, and structures provide a link between business, community, and schools to help all students succeed. Successful students are ready for higher education and career opportunities and our community benefits from a more skilled and educated workforce.

Partners in Education PiE

Since 1988, our flagship Partners in Education program bridges business and community with schools to support academic achievement. There are many ways for you to become a Proud Partner in Education!

Caring for Classrooms

In collaboration with Washoe County School District, local change-makers, and other community organizations Caring for Classrooms addresses top underfunded needs in WCSD with multifacted and evidence-based approaches.

Principal for a Day

This annual event is a great opportunity for a community leader to shadow a WCSD School Principal to share common successes and challenges and consider a partnership. This backstage pass into education is a worthwhile experience for all participants!

Teachers’ Warehouse

Accepting donations all year long, the Teachers' Warehouse allows teachers to shop for classroom supplies at no cost. It is a great opportunity for our community, businesses, and individuals to donate gently used items for teachers to enhance learning in the classroom!

Redfield Community Outreach Program (RCOP)

Through the generosity of the Nell J. Redfield Foundation, three RCOP Facilitators schedule and coordinate experiential learning activities for twelve selected Washoe County schools. This program plays a vitally important role in providing impactful educational experiences to underserved students.
