NPRI believes that the way to improve Nevada education is to empower parents and give them more control over the education their children receive. Nevada's monolithic educational apparatus has for too long been impervious to the free-market reforms that are a prerequisite to a quality education system. NPRI's mission on education policy is to inform Nevada's citizens, elected officials and educational leaders of the need to inject free-market principles into this area of public policy.

Providing opportunity scholarships and ending social promotion would increase student achievement in Nevada.

CCSD police 'not concerned about' state's governing statutes.

Collective bargaining allows CCEA to protect bad teachers during contract negotiations.

The majority of Nevada's neighbors have higher student achievement while spending less.

Digital learning offers schools a chance to multiply the impact of their best teachers, personalize the education experience for each student and do both while spending less. About 1.5 million students around the country are currently enrolled in a digital learning program and that number is growing rapidly both in Nevada and nationwide.

The complexity of the "Nevada Plan" creates confusion about total per-pupil spending.

School choice is available for children currently stuck in failing CCSD Title 1 schools.

If Nevada wants to close income and racial achievement gaps in education, the Silver State should follow Florida's lead.

Participants who have invested money in the Higher Education Prepaid Tuition Program may now have grounds to sue.

NPRI luncheon will celebrate how school choice can increase student achievement.
