Teach NV works to impact Jewish day schools and families across the state. A branch of the Orthodox Union’s Teach Coalition, a multi-state, grassroots movement, Teach NV is devoted to advocating for nonpublic school program, funding, and resources.

In June 2024, we helped secure $750,000 in security funding, and there’s more to come. We’re just getting started!
