CCSD Class of 2026 Earns More Than $380 million in Scholarships

Students in the Clark County School District’s (CCSD) Class of 2026 are entering their next stage of life with more than $380 million in college scholarships. 

The total is an increase of 5.5 percent compared to the Class of 2025, which earned $360 million in scholarships.

This includes $98.82 million in Millennium Scholarship funds, which are provided to high-achieving Nevada high school graduates to use toward tuition at eligible in-state colleges and universities.

“Through hard work and determination, the Class of 2026 has given themselves a head start on their collegiate careers,” said CCSD Superintendent Jhone Ebert. “Earning a record amount in college scholarships proves what happens when brilliant, hard-working students are backed by incredible teachers and counselors."

Students from Coronado High School combined to earn more than $28 million in scholarships, which led all CCSD schools. The top five campuses for scholarship value were: 

• Coronado High School - $28,320,843
• Shadow Ridge High School - $21,039,586
• Centennial High School - $18,993,983
• Spring Valley High School - $18,944,421
• West Career and Technical Academy - $18,779,329

The Nevada Department of Education is not expected to release graduation rates for the Class of 2026 until the fall. The scholarship numbers provided are based on information CCSD seniors shared with their school counselors before graduation.
