CCSD Board of Trustees taking next steps regarding budget compliance monitoring
During tonight's school board meeting, the CCSD Board of Trustees is set to finalize the agreement for the compliance monitor required by the state superintendent.
It comes after the district was deemed to be "non-compliant" with state law following a number of budget issues.
Justin Hinton spoke to the state superintendent about appointing someone to monitor the district.
"She is very well qualified to look across a large organization which the Clark County School District is, and so I look forward to receiving those reports, working collaboratively with the school district to get it on a positive path," Jhone Ebert said.
At last check, the district had a potential budget shortfall of about $11 million. The compliance monitor can attend any meetings related to the reorganization and operation of the district. That includes any board meetings or meetings of any executive or cabinet member, principal or any interested stakeholders.
