Clark County School District Board of Trustees

What is the Board of Trustees & what are they responsible for? The CCSD Trustees are decision-makers for the school district. Seven members are elected based on district; four are appointed representatives from the four largest municipalities in Clark County (Clark County, City of Las Vegas, City of Henderson, and City of North Las Vegas). They are responsible for providing oversight to the Superintendent and establishing District-wide policy. Trustees are accountable to work with their communities to improve student achievement.

Trustees Approved a Notice of Intent to Amend CCSD Policy 6110 (7-0)

Highlights of the presentation for the policy included:

  • It is now specified that the details and length of the instructional day are aligned with applicable law.
  • A section about temporary alterations of the school day was removed, as it is better covered in Regulation 6110.
  • Language was updated to reflect current terminology.
  • The changes do not affect the length of school days, as CCSD already meets the minimum instructional minutes required by the Nevada Department of Education.
