Accelerated Schools Center University of Nevada, Las Vegas jane@unlv.edu Welcome to the Accelerated Schools Center located at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. We are one of 12 satellite centers sponsored by the National Center for the Accelerated Schools Project located at the University of Connecticut. Our mission is to facilitate the initiation and continuation of accelerated schools across the Western United States. General Information Calendar of Events School Sites Links to Other Sites General Information The Accelerated Schools Center at UNLV was started in August, 1991. The center is located in the Curriculum and Instruction Department in the College of Education at the university. Adjacent to the campus is the newly opened Paradise Elementary School which is an accelerated school site. The center currently serves 19 schools in Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. The Accelerated Schools Project was launched at Stanford University in 1986 by Dr. Henry Levin. It is a comprehensive approach to school change, designed to improve schooling for children in at-risk situations. During his research, Dr. Levin was perplexed by the practice of remediating certain students. Though the practice of remediation is intended to allow students to catch up to their peers, research finds that remediation actually causes students to fall farther and farther behind the mainstream. Struck by the inequity of this system, he proposed a new kind of school where staff, parents, students, district office representatives, and local community members would work together to accelerate learning by providing all students with the challenging activities that have traditionally been reserved for students identified as gifted and talented. His viewpoint was that children caught in at-risk situations have exactly the same characteristics and potential of all children, including curiosity, desire to learn, imagination, and the need for support and affirmation. Consequently, accelerated schools are designed to bring all students into the educational mainstream by building on their natural strengths, and by having consistently high expectations for them, regardless of their background. Accelerated schools hold high expectations for every students, and provide each student with powerful learning experiences.
