On Jan. 15, State Superintendent of Instruction Steve Canavero will issue a ruling whether the Clark County School District is following the reorganization law. He doesn’t expect they will be found in compliance. Here’s one of the major reasons why: The law says school should benefit from “attrition savings.” When a school can’t hire a full-time teacher and has to hire a substitute, they’re saving the district some money, because substitutes cost less. That money is called attrition. Historically, schools haven’t been given the money they save the district. The district has used it for other projects. That has to change, according to the law. But the district says it’s hard to “build the engine of a plane while it’s flying.” The state will likely issue a corrective action plan, laying out what the district needs to do to come into compliance.
