Empowering Kindergarteners with a High-Quality Education, Vibrant Community, and Harvard-Recognized Technology
Sierra Nevada Academy Charter School (SNACS) is thrilled to welcome students back for the 2024-25 school year. School started recently for K– 8; for the 25th year as the first Charter School in Nevada. At the start of school, we met with SNACS Kindergarten students in a small group session to help ease the transition from preschool to kindergarten. Students are now using our new Choice Boards and working in centers. Stay in the loop this school year with our updated calendar. Our tuition-free public charter school is officially back in session for the school year, but there is still time to join us for our 25th year. With our state-of-the-art technology and small school community, SNACS is an obvious choice for Reno families.
The SNACS Difference
1. Advanced Technology
At Sierra Nevada Academy Charter School, we recognize that every student learns differently. For the 2024-25 school year, we launched our new PLAY® Interactive Choice Boards. Designed by SNACS Founder and CEO, Dr. Kimberly Regan, our PLAY® Interactive Choice Board Learning Management System, has been recognized by Harvard, the National Museum of Play, and Lakeshore Learning as a game changer in the education landscape.
2. High-Quality Kindergarten
As SNACS kindergarteners settle into their new classrooms for the 2024-25 school year, they don’t have to travel very far. We make transitioning from preschool to kindergarten a breeze with students staying on the same campus. With a sturdy base, our students can seamlessly transition into high school. Our innovative instruction using choice and play helps students shape their education.
3. Small School Community
We’ve created a model where the climate and culture successfully support all learners and their families. Our dedicated teachers provide small-group instruction and hands-on learning for all students. Personalized learning plans for individualized and differentiated instruction make SNACS an equitable choice for your family. Ready to join our community?
