The three final teams were selected from among 25 other teams made up of the school’s more than 90 fifth graders.

A gift from an anonymous donor is kicking off the fundraising campaign to expand the UNLV/CSUN Preschool at the Lynn Bennett Early Childhood Education Center.

Nevada’s higher education institutions are on track to receive the largest single injection of state dollars in years, not only $75 million in restored COVID-era cuts but also tens of millions from a Legislature desperate to stem hemorrhaging statewide populations of doctors, nurses and teachers.

UNLV's preschool will soon be expanding to serve twice as many children each year after receiving a $10 million anonymous donation. “Access to affordable, high-quality early childhood education sets the foundation for a lifetime of success," UNLV President Keith Whitfield said in a press release. "This transformative gift will dramatically expand operations at the preschool and make it possible for more families — including UNLV students — to experience Southern Nevada’s premier learning community.”

For the second year in a row, UNLV's Rebel Girls & Company dance team is the best in the world in hip-hop.
