LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Clark County Education Association which represents 18,000 school teachers responded Friday morning to the sudden resignation of Clark County School District’s Chief Financial Officer Jason Goudie on Wednesday.
The union news release said it “highlights a systemic problem of mismanagement” in CCSD and former Superintendent Jesus Jara’s administration and “his legacy leadership now in charge.”
CCSD Trustee Isaac Barron issued the following statement late Thursday night.
Despite the challenges being reported, now is not the time to panic. The taxpayers and the state have insured our schools are properly funded. I have great confidence the budget issues will be resolved. We will work diligently to ensure no community, school, teacher, and especially, no students will be left behind!
CCSD Trustee Isaac Barron
The union said it will hold a news conference Friday at 10 a.m.
