Tremendous growth and population shifts during the past decade created quite a challenge for Clark County School District trustees to work with staff and develop a comprehensive redistricting plan that would address as many community concerns as possible. Following several months of discussion and input, a plan was approved at a special board meeting on August 22, 2011.

The redistricting, which was required by state law following the results of the 2010 census, will result in some residents being represented by a new trustee, while others will have the same trustee as their designated board member. The new districts go into effect immediately and bring the population more in alignment so each trustee represents a similar number of constituents.
