Episode Details

Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo and State Superintendent Doctor Victor Wakefield emphasized the importance of early reading skills during a two-city tour. Lombardo read to students at Alice Smith Elementary School in Reno, while Wakefield spoke at Arturo Cambeiro Elementary School in Las Vegas. They highlighted the link between strong early reading skills and positive life outcomes, but noted that many Nevada students struggle with reading. To improve literacy, the state is expanding pre-kindergarten spots, updating curriculums, and offering interventions. Senate Bill four hundred sixty mandates Science of Reading training for teachers, and the theme Book an Adventure includes live author events.
