The RAVE (Recognize A Valued Employee) Review Program incorporates unsolicited acknowledgement of Clark County School District (CCSD) employees who have demonstrated excellence in character, performance and service. 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.
CORE VALUES
The program is now tied to CCSD’s seven Core Values (listed below). When identifying an individual to nominate, be sure to select the Core Value that is exemplified by the recipient.
