Trustees Approved the Written "Employment Agreement – Superintendent of Schools" between the Washoe County School District Board of Trustees and Mrs. Tiffany McMaster on behalf of the Washoe County School District
Trustees approved the written "Employment Agreement – Superintendent of Schools" between the Washoe County School District Board of Trustees and Mrs. Tiffany McMaster on behalf of the Washoe County School District pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) 391.110.
Entre los aspectos más destacados de la presentación figuran los siguientes:
- Using achievement/proficiency metrics from the 2025-2026 school year to compare to the 2024-2025 school year for evaluation. In prior years, the most recent school year was referenced, which did not adequately reflect the performance of the incoming Superintendent.
- Graduation rates and SBAC were discussed specifically as evaluation metrics during the performance review in June 2027.
- Discussion surrounding the compensation package for the superintendent that now includes COLA (which previously was not received by previous superintendents but was available to every other role).

Trustees Received a Presentations and Approved the Continued Development of a New Restart Charter Contract with Sierra Nevada Academy Charter Schools (SNACS)
Trustees received a presentation and directed the superintended to continue development of a new restart charter contract with Sierra Nevada Academy Charter Schools (SNACS) with clearly defined termination terms based on the SNACS performance management plan, trustee discussion, and an improvement of index points based on staff recommendations, to include no delays on deliverables at any point within the next two years, and a 2% increase in fees.
Entre los aspectos más destacados de la presentación figuran los siguientes:
- SNACS previously received three consecutive years of a Nevada State Performance Framework (NSPF) rating of 1-star, resulting in the need to renew the charter contract.
- The Board of Trustees approved the restart of the charter based on the following conditions being met: Diagnostic review, reconstituted governing body with two or more members, new school administration, increased stakeholder communication, and retaining an academic consultant. If these conditions are not met by January 30, 2026, the SNACS charter will default to termination.
- Based on the committee review summary from the June 9, 2026 committee meeting, key areas for improvement were: Data to action, ambiguity surrounding how changes within the new academic model differ from prior practices, a call for increased accountability systems, a stronger staffing strategy to address high turnover, and corrections to inconsistencies in projections and debt analysis in the financial narrative that was presented.
