LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Your voice can be heard at a number of upcoming community forums for a master plan of Clark County School District facilities.

On Wednesday, CCSD announced a Facility Master Plan (FMP) designed to "guide how schools are used and where capital investments are made over the next 5 to 10 years."

The district said they have partnered with New York-based architectural firm CannonDesign to reassess each school, study enrollment trends and create a planning process led by the community.

It's not just the physical infrastructure under the microscope either. CCSD said this master plan will also involve operational aspects like educational programs, grade configurations, school sizes and their locations.

"As the student population evolves and schools serve families across urban, suburban, and rural areas, the FMP is a chance to improve and reimagine learning environments. It will address challenges like overcrowding, aging buildings, and shifting community needs — with the goal of creating modern, inspiring spaces where all students can succeed," CCSD said in the press release.

Community forums will be held in-person and virtually and offered in English in Spanish.
