OUR
Superintendent
The Clark County School District (CCSD) serves 320,000 students – and each only has one shot at school.
I felt this urgency every day in my first year serving as your superintendent. After a 90-day listening tour throughout our community, the Board of Trustees and my team set our five-year strategic plan, Focus:2024.
One of our biggest priorities moving forward is equity – ensuring equity and access for our historically underserved and under-resourced students.
