NEVADA

Nevada published FY18 and FY19 school-by-school spending data on the “Nevada Report Card.” Visuals for school, district, and state total per-pupil expenditures are provided, and detailed spending reports across schools and against district and state averages can be generated. Nevada also published a downloadable data file providing ESSA spending data, broken out by federal, state and local dollars, for every school in the state. Explore Nevada’s spending data below or access the Nevada Report Card website HERE and the data file HERE.

OTHER QUESTIONS TO ASK & HOW TO FIND THE ANSWERS

Is spending equitable across my district?

To view spending for every school in a district, you must create a “Fiscal Information Report” in the Data Interaction for Nevada Accountability Portal. Once you’ve selected the school year (Nevada has currently published FY18 data) and your comparison district, click “get report.” The report will show you per-pupil spending for the state and the district. Click on the district and select “drill to schools” to view the per-pupil spending information for every school in the district. Nevada also published the “ESSA Per Pupil Expenditures By School for FY19” file which provides school-by-school spending for each school in the state and district. You can download this to conduct your comparison.
