One of reasons Nevada’s Open Meeting Law exists is to prevent the “he said/she said” dispute that’s playing out in the Clark County School District.
The reorganization of the Clark County School District is contributing to the district’s budget pinch. That’s according to Kenneth Retzl, director of education policy with the Kenny Guinn Center for Policy Priorities.
Teachers aren’t required to join the Clark County Education Association, but they can only leave during the next two weeks.

When public education fails, many say it needs more money. When Opportunity Scholarships succeed, those same people want to cut its funding.
