The RAVE (Recognize A Valued Employee) Review Program incorporates unsolicited acknowledgement of Clark County School District (CCSD) employees who make a difference and are exemplary models of the District’s Standards. Submissions should highlight accomplishments that exceed general job expectations and focus on those who truly go above and beyond for students, parents/guardians, fellow staff members, and the community.
CCSD CARES STANDARDS
The program is now tied to five CCSD CARES Standards including: Communication, Accountability, Respectfulness, Excellence, and Solutions. When identifying an individual to nominate, be sure to select the Standard that is most exemplified by the recipient.
CERTIFICATE DISTRIBUTION
MONTHLY WINNER


Any CCSD employee.
Other CCSD employees, students, parents/guardians, and community members.
Nominations are selected at random.
One RAVE recipient is selected per month.
Winners will receive partner-donated incentives like gift cards, passes for experiential activities, and more.
As part of the program revamp, physical certificates are now being mailed to schools/sites.
Certificates are printed at the end of each month then mailed to your school/site. School administration and department supervisors will be provided with certificates containing the submission text and are asked to distribute them to recipients.
Certificates are mailed at the end of the month. Please allow adequate time for them to be distributed by your school administration and department supervisor.
