Expanding Financing Options for Nevada's K-12 Facilities

School districts throughout Nevada have critical, unmet capital needs and currently have insufficient resources to fund repairs and build new schools.

In addition, the existing structure has increased disparities between school districts, given that each district has a different set of funding sources that it can use. This policy brief provides recommendations to expand the financing options available to school districts to meet capital needs. (February 2015)
