The CCSD Board of School Trustees received a presentation regarding CCSD’s balanced assessment system framework.
With the addition of the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) Growth interim assessment, CCSD has an assessment cycle with one assessment that will be administered three times during the school year in grades K-9 to assess students’ progress on the content standards.
The balanced assessment system framework includes assessments that educators use to gain valuable data to guide and inform instruction and to better support student learning.

Board Agenda Item 5.02 – Legislative updates
Trustees received a Legislative update on bills that could impact CCSD. Currently, there are approximately 226 bills that could impact CCSD in one way or another.
Modernizing Nevada’s funding formula remains CCSD’s top legislative priority. CCSD Government Relations staff are in contact with Sen. Mo Denis, Sen. Joyce Woodhouse, and other legislative leaders who are supportive of modernizing Nevada’s 52-year old funding formula. CCSD remains hopeful that a bill to update the funding formula will be introduced.
Board Agenda Item 5.06 – Notice of Intent – CCSD Policy 7223 – Naming of Schools and Education-Related Facilities
Trustees were presented with proposed amendments to CCSD Policy 7223, which relates to naming of schools and educated-related facilities.
If passed at a future meeting, CCSD elementary and middle schools named for a geographical reference or a historical figure may request to be renamed, if their community supports renaming the school. Most of CCSD’s elementary and middle schools are named after local leaders, and those schools would not be eligible for renaming under the proposed policy change.
The agenda item would have to go before the Board of School Trustees at least twice more before any potential action could occur.
