🚨🚨Sound the Alarm🚨🚨

The Clark County School District, under the leadership of Jesus Jara, is losing teachers/licensed staff faster than ever before!

This thread reviews the latest data!
1/?
#NVed #CCSD
2/?
We’re in the 3rd month of the school year & 664 teachers/licensed staff have announced they're leaving CCSD.

- 66% more than a typical year
- 31% more than the next highest year
3/?
It’s rare that an employee is so frustrated w/ CCSD that they say they are leaving because they’re “Dissatisfied with the District”

In a typical year at this point, less than 6 teachers/licensed staff have left for this reason.

Let’s see what it looks like this year…
4/?
More teachers have left because they are dissatisfied with the District than ever before!

Over 6 times more than a typical year.

3 times more than the next highest year.
5/?
CCSD has a record number of teachers/licensed staff leaving to take a position in another district in Nevada.

These are in addition to the record number of staff leaving because they are dissatisfied with the District.

We’re losing teachers who want to teach!
6/?

What happens when a Trustee:

- Stands up for our children
- Stands up for our educators

And says, enough is enough…
7/?

The opportunity at a quality education is disappearing for thousands of children as teachers leave in record numbers,

And for some of the Trustees, their solution is to attack the Board President who has stood up for kids.
8/?
The current leadership of CCSD has been making the problem worse.

Read this thread for more details:
9/?
CCSD’s current leadership has seemingly done nothing to seriously address the massive teacher retention problem.

Read this thread for more details:
10/10
Enough is enough!

It’s time for new leadership.

Our community deserves better.
Our teachers deserve better.
Our children deserve better.

The Twitter account for the Superintendent of the 5th largest school district in the US allegedly posted a crude, misogynistic message.

We don’t know if it’s real, fake, or a hack.

But we’re good at going through data, so let’s review what’s out there…

5:41am @Kbelknap822 takes a screenshot of the tweet that was posted 20 seconds earlier

25 minutes later, at 6:06 AM, Kenny posted the screenshot

Seems unlikely he thought to forge ALL those details

But hard to say for sure🤷‍♂️ Image
@Kbelknap822 3/?

If the screenshot is real, it seems there are 2 options…

Either somebody without access hacked the account and posted the message

OR

Somebody with authorized access to the Superintendent account posted the message Image

🔎Let's Take a Look🔎

How bad have things gotten in CCSD that the Speaker of the State Assembly is calling on Superintendent Jesus Jara to resign?

Let's look at the latest data fiasco.
No, not the data breach…

🧵1/? Image

CCSD just published the teacher vacancies report for last school year.

It reports that CCSD averaged 1,583 vacancies for just general fund teacher/licensed staff positions in schools.

That’s a whopping 12.3% vacancy rate!!! 🤯 Image
3/?

Here are the teacher vacancies CCSD reported for the last 5 years:

2019: 275
2020: 686
2021: 824
2022: 903
2023: 1,583

This is what CCSD reported.
We have done no calculations to aggregate these numbers.
We only put them in a chart. Image

🎄Merry Excusemas🎄

If ifs & buts were candy & nuts, every day would be Christmas for Jara apologists.

"…but COVID"
"...but historically"
"…but but but"

This thread is too long, but let’s get at it…

“…but COVID”

Yes, reading scores went down for the whole country.

Nevada’s scores dropped DOUBLE the national average, AFTER closing a massive & persistent learning gap

How much of that is attributable to CCSD… Image
3/?

“...but everyone experienced learning loss”

CCSD’s drop in 4th grade reading was over DOUBLE what it was for:

- National public-school average
- Large urban district average
- The rest of Nevada

Yes, everybody had a setback, but it was NOT the same Image

🔥Results Are In🔥

CCSD's Accountability data was released today!

Let's do a quick review of the results & school star ratings...

(1/?) #NVed #CCSD Image
2/?
CCSD posted its LOWEST EVER reading proficiency rates on the SBAC

Not surprising... over last couple years:

- Drove out 1,000s of teachers
- Rampant vacancies
- Paid experienced leaders to leave
- Community trust broken
- Teachers & Principals calling for Supt to be fired Image
3/?

Only 1 in 5 kids headed to high school are proficient in math

Not surprising... over last couple years:

- Drove out 1,000s of teachers
- Rampant vacancies
- Paid experienced leaders to leave
- Community trust broken
- Teachers & Principals calling for Supt to be fired Image

💡We may have finally figured out how CCSD produced this completely inaccurate & irresponsible data point.

They have once again shown they have no competence in working with data or communicating with the public.

Read the thread for details…

Here are the official grad rates for the Class of 2022 for all of the high schools in North Las Vegas.

Depending on which schools you include the actual grad rate is between 74% - 85%.

So how did CCSD come up with 51% ???
3/?

You need to add over 1,600 students to NLV’s student count without adding ANY graduates to get the total overall grad rate down to 51.5%

Let’s put that into context…

🚧WRONG WAY🚧
No more excuses!

Read the whole thread to understand how CCSD has been driving #NVed in the WRONG direction

We'll review where we've come from and how we've gotten all turned around
- New national data
- Updated teacher exodus data
And More!

This morning’s NY Times referenced data from The Educational Opportunity Project

They've charted the change in average reading scores since the pandemic

Each dot is a school district

Higher dot, reading performance improved.
Lower dot, reading performance worsened. Image
3/?

The highlighted bubbles represent the 10 largest districts in the US (NY did not have data)

Higher bubbles = Students have done better in reading since the pandemic

Lower bubbles = Students have done worse in reading since the pandemic

Guess which one is Clark County… Image
