Red Rock hotel-casino team members visited Pat Diskin Elementary School Tuesday with thousands of school supplies, including backpacks, notebooks, glue sticks, markers and more.
 
Red Rock’s team members donated more than 27,000 supplies and more than 1,700 backpacks. Because of the donations by Red Rock's team members, they’re not only providing every child in their partner school with a backpack, but are also donating to Clark County School District’s Title One program so that homeless students throughout the valley will have access to free school supplies.
 
The effort is part of the 17-year-old Smart Start program, through which Station Casinos properties partner with 11 high-need elementary schools deemed by the Clark County School District as needing the greatest assistance.
