Shape proven education policy and practice that will work for Nevada.
Join forces with educators, legislators, district and state leaders, investors, and members of the business community for a transformational impact across all sectors.
Nevada Succeeds + Design Team 1 incubated the development of a Nevada Portrait of a Graduate.
Design Team 1 (2019-20)
Design Team 1 was passionate about empowering every Nevada high school graduate with the skillsets + mindsets for lifelong success.
The inaugural Design Team partnered with Tom Vander Ark and Getting Smart to deep dive into Singapore’s highly successful change leadership strategy. By studying one of the highest performing education systems in the world, Fellows discovered the significance of a Profile of a Globally Competent Learner (or a Portrait of a Graduate).
Graduate Profiles are designed to rethink the ingredients of a future-ready high school credential.
Example: Churchill County's Learner Profile.
Portrait of a Graduate
defines a set of characteristics that students statewide must possess for optimal preparedness after high school.
Individual Learner Profiles
are developed for each student, aligned to the Portrait and the student's unique talents and learning needs.
Learner Portfolios
track a student's work, results, and demonstrate their learning as they progress towards the goals outlined in their Learner Profiles, aligned to the Portrait.
Developing Nevada's
Portrait of a Graduate
In collaboration with Nevada Succeeds, Design Team 1 Fellows, and community partners– a community-driven and research-informed process to develop a statewide Portrait of a Nevada Graduate is underway.
