Welcome Back Soon Sharks!
Hello Shark Families,
We are excited to welcome some of our students back to the campus in the next couple of weeks.
Based upon the surveys that were completed in November, the district has been working on a reopening plan. If you completed the survey and stated that you wanted your child to participate in the hybrid learning model, then they have been assigned to either Cohort A or B. More information will be sent to the families as to which Cohort your child has been assigned to. If you stated in the survey that you did not want your child to participate in the hybrid learning model, or you did not complete the survey, then your child has been assigned to Cohort C and will remain with online learning.
If you would like to be added to the waitlist to participate with the hybrid learning, you may call the office at 702-799-6801. However, please wait until Tuesday, March 2, to call the office.
On Monday, March 22, our Grade 6 students (Cohort A) will return to campus.
On Thursday, March 25, our Grade 6 students (Cohort B) will return to campus.
On Tuesday, April 6, our Grade 7 and 8 students (Cohort A) will return to campus.
On Thursday, April 8, our Grade 7 and 8 students (Cohort B) will return to campus.
More detailed information will be sent out about cohorts, times, busing, etc. over the days and weeks to come.
Thank you for your patience as we finalize our plan to safely return your child to campus.

School Zoning Update (Mountains Edge)
Click for Photo of the proposed Zoning Change
The Clark County School District's Board of School Trustees
understands attendance boundary changes can be difficult for
families and communities. To ensure their concerns are heard, the
Board established the Attendance Zone Advisory Commission
(AZAC). The members of AZAC are volunteers, parents, and
concerned citizens appointed by the Board of School Trustees and
the Superintendent of Schools to represent their individual districts.
AZAC members review attendance boundaries each year and
recommend changes to the Board of School Trustees.
Your input is a valuable part of this process. Due to the current
restrictions of public gatherings and for the safety of the community,
our members, and staff, the public input process will be adjusted this
year. We ask that parents, guardians, or community members review
the proposals in this flyer. Written public comments of no more than
300 words regarding this proposal may be submitted by email to
AZAC@nv.ccsd.net. Please include your name and school of
concern. All public comments on this item received before 3:00 PM,
January 15, 2021 will be forwarded to all AZAC members before they
vote on their final zoning recommendation at a virtual meeting on
January 19, 2021.
AZAC then formulates a final attendance boundary recommendation
which will be forwarded to the Board of School Trustees for their
approval. The meeting time to be announced. This recommendation
could be any variation of the proposals presented in this flyer,
including no change to the current boundary.
To monitor the zoning process, review all backup material or access
the virtual meetings please visit http:// azac.ccsd.net.

In an effort to keep you informed of important issues happening within our school community, I wanted to make you aware that on Tuesday, October 20, at 9:30 a.m. the Attendance Zone Advisory Commission (AZAC) will be meeting to discuss and possibly take action on the establishment of a new school attendance boundary. This new school boundary would be created to service the new middle school located in Mountain’s Edge. The scheduled opening of this school will take place in the 2021-22 school year.
The creation of this new school boundary will have an effect on Tarkanian MS and Faiss MS. This is the first meeting where AZAC will discuss the creation of this new boundary. Families can follow the AZAC meetings and process at http://azac.ccsd.net/.
