Governor Joe Lombardo has introduced the Nevada Accountability in Education Act, a bill aimed at increasing accountability and transparency in schools. The legislation, unveiled at Pinecrest Academy of Nevada in Henderson, would hold school districts more responsible for student performance and allow for restructuring or government oversight if districts underperform. Lombardo emphasized that the bill aims to match the state’s historic investment in K-12 education with tangible results and accountability, stating that no child in Nevada should be held back by their ZIP code or socioeconomic status.
The Accountability in Education Act is designed to ensure that all students have access to quality education and are not trapped in failing schools. By increasing accountability and choice, Lombardo hopes to improve student success and address chronic underperformance. The bill has been met with support from state education leaders and is seen as a step towards ensuring excellence in Nevada’s education system.
