The Clark County School District is currently facing more than 100 lawsuits. FOX5 uncovering that staggering number through a law that requires the release of information through the Freedom of Information Act. We started digging into lawsuits against CCSD after the district said unexpected expenses, including litigation and a cyberattack, led to a multimillion-dollar budget deficit.
Right now, an auditor appointed by the governor is in the process of doing a deep dive into the district’s finances after a major budget discrepancy first estimated at $20 million then $10 million was discovered last fall and the district’s Chief Financial Officer fired. For months, FOX5 has also been working to get more information about the district’s financials and thanks to publicly filed requests we now have answers.
