Revises provisions relating to the organization of large school districts. (BDR 34-1048)
AB 426 revises rules for large Nevada school districts (over 100,000 students, like Clark County) by requiring principals to share budget details with school leadership teams 3 days before voting, send meeting agendas to parents 3 working days in advance, and post documents online. It mandates that budget changes over $1,000 need approval from both the leadership team and a superintendent, and prohibits principals from serving on their own leadership teams. The bill also requires public input meetings when a principal vacancy occurs and sets rules for keeping leadership team members' roles open even if a child no longer attends the school. These changes directly affect school principals, leadership teams, parents, and district administrators in large school districts.
