Accountability
Nevada Report Card
The Nevada Department of Education has a new public education accountability reporting website. In compliance with both federal and state laws, this website will assist you in locating a wealth of information pertaining to K-12 public education in Nevada.
Accountability Report
During the 1993 session, the Nevada State Legislature passed a School Accountability bill (NRS 385.347 revised) requiring all school districts in Nevada to inform the public on the performance of public schools throughout the state. The Legislature passed further revisions of the School Accountability Law during the 1995 session (SB 386), the 1997 session (Nevada Education Reform Act, SB 482), the 1999 session (SB 70), the 2001 session (SB 165), and the 2003 special session (SB 1).
Recently, the federal government has become involved in school accountability with the passage in 2001 of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act (HR 1). This law provides a school accountability model that applies to public education in all 50 states and includes accountability reports to the public with a set of required elements. Nevada's revised accountability law (SB 1) includes these NCLB reporting elements and every other aspects of the NCLB model.
If you are looking for individual school reports, please click here to go to the SCHOOLS section of the website. Then choose elementary, middle or high school, click on the individual school and scroll down to that school's Accountability Report.
Data Profile
For the past nine years, the Washoe county School District, Truckee Meadows Community College and the University of Nevada, Reno have worked in concert through the Education Collaborative of Washoe County to produce the Washoe K-16 Data Profile, formerly called the High School Data Profile. The Nevada Department of Education and the Nevada System of Higher Education have also participated in this effort. The Data Profile is the collection and presentation of data about Washoe County School District high school students and their matriculation into college, with social emphasis on the graduates who attend the University of Nevada, Reno and Truckee Meadows Community College. Through this effort, we hope to identify factors that can increase the success of our student as they proceed from high school to post-secondary education.
