Parents Need to Know: They Have an Important Role in the New CCSD Reorganization

The Clark County School District reorganization plan means the potential exists for schools to become more responsive to their local communities. But that can only happen if parents’ voices are loud and clear. 

School-level parent organizations could play an important role in encouraging parents to participate in their organizational teams. However, a majority of CCSD schools–about 60%– do not currently have an organization that represents parents. In low income neighborhoods, only one in five schools has a formal parent organization.
