LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Parents and community members will now have a long awaited tool at their fingertips to monitor some Clark County School District (CCSD) data.

Education officials say the District Overview dashboard will provide the public with key measurements that can show student performances at each CCSD school. They say the dashboard also aims to provide transparency for the community and provide data on the state of education within the district.

CCSD Superintendent Dr. Jesus Jara said, "So this is to inform the public of what is happening in our schools and being transparent with the community."

The dashboard allows the community to see attendance rates, assessment data, behavior and other performance measures online.

Specifically, the data points that can be viewed in the dashboard include enrollment, attendance, behavior, MAP growth and state tests.

The dashboard will cost about $1 million to fund over the next three years. CCSD is using pandemic-related money to cover the costs.
