SOT

Each school in the Clark County School District will create a School Organizational Team which will assist the principal in making important decisions impacting the school. This team will be made up of elected licensed staff, education support professionals, parents/guardians, and students (at the secondary level), as well as one or more optional, non‐elected community members. Cultural diversity reflective of the student population should be considered.

The Bennett and Laughlin SOTs are separate and may operate independent of each other.
