Ano ang Board of Trustees at ano ang kanilang pananagutan? Ang CCSD Trustees ay mga gumagawa ng desisyon para sa distrito ng paaralan. Pitong miyembro ang inihalal batay sa distrito; apat ang hinirang na kinatawan mula sa apat na pinakamalaking munisipalidad sa Clark County (Clark County, City of Las Vegas, City of Henderson, at City of North Las Vegas). Responsable sila sa pagbibigay ng pangangasiwa sa Superintendente at pagtatatag ng patakaran sa buong Distrito. Ang mga trustee ay may pananagutan na makipagtulungan sa kanilang mga komunidad upang mapabuti ang tagumpay ng mag-aaral.

Nakatanggap ang mga Truste ng Update sa Teachers Health Trust

Trustees received an update on the Teachers Health Trust and the Trust’s annual audit, including revenue and expense analysis, healthcare access, and experience. Highlights of the presentation include:

• After incurring $55M in debt in 2021, THT is now debt-free and solvent.
• The 2024 Audited financial report issued a clean report, but has a note of concern, because as of June 30, 2024, benefit obligations exceeded net assets. However, by December 2024, that issue has been resolved.
• THT has repaid the $35M loan from CCSD.
• An increase in membership and rates helped raise revenue, and THT cut administrative costs, saving $20M and costing only 5.9% of total revenue (as compared to an industry average of 15%).

Trustees Approved an Update from the Compliance Monitor (6-0)

Ang mga highlight ng pagtatanghal ay kinabibilangan ng:

• In 2015, AB 394 created an Advisory Committee to develop a plan to reorganize large school districts with more than 100,000 pupils enrolled. In 2016, the State Board of Education adopted a regulation to carry out the plan. It was codified in 2017 by AB 469 with bipartisan support. Essentially, it deems each school to be a “local school precinct” which operates under site-based decision making.
  • This allows for individual schools and principals to have more autonomy on spending decisions. Principals manage their own budget allocations.
  • CCSD is the only district in the state that is under this type of structure.
• Decentralization requires stronger financial oversight and budgetary controls, including policies and guidelines, monitoring and reporting, and training and support.
• A discussion of ways to improve oversight included the use of AI technology, offering training, and incorporating finance department representatives in pre-scheduled quarterly meetings with principals.
