LAS VEGAS AREA HIGH SCHOOLS August 2008 Page 1 of 6 LAS VEGAS AREA HIGH SCHOOLS August 2008 Page 1 of 6 INTRODUCTION The following driving instructions to Las Vegas area high schools are based upon per- sonal observations, and are meant to assist high school sports officials with finding the desired school quickly. The route given is usually the easiest one, written for somebody who is driving across town and has never been to the school before, and may not always be the “best” or shortest route. Because you didn’t have to pay anything for this guide, no liability is accepted for errors of any sort. If you do find obvious errors, please send them to <[email protected]> so that they can be corrected (if you don’t, they won’t be). The most recent version of this document may be found at “www.adrielec.com/soccer”. Special thanks to Jack Young for his many contributions, especially for the small outlying schools. TERMINOLOGY 1) “US95” is coincident with US93 and I-515 at various places. 2) “I-215” is used to refer to the beltway which circles throughout the outer portions of the Las Vegas Valley. This entire roadway will be under construction for many years to come. Some parts are officially called “Clark County 215” for now, but it is all the same road. 3) Distances were measured from the center of each intersection. Some urban intersec- tions are 0.1mi to 0.2mi wide, and may affect your readings. Allow for tiny errors in the distances indicated.

  • Nevada Department of Education: Chart of Accounts
    THE STATE OF NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION NEVADA COMMON ELEMENTS FOR ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING K-12 EDUCATIONAL FINANCES INCLUDING STANDARD CHART OF ACCOUNTS IN FULFILLMENT OF THE STIPULATIONS OF NEVADA REVISED STATUTES 385.310, subsection 2 and NEVADA REVISED STATUTES 385.315, subsection 2. October 14, 2008 Keith W. Rheault, Superintendent of Public Instruction James R. Wells, Deputy Superintendent Administrative and Fiscal Services Updated 3/30/2011 FOREWORD The Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) chapter 385 section 310 subsection 2 prescribes one of the duties of the Deputy Superintendent for Administrative and Fiscal Services to be the development of a uniform system of budgeting and accounting for all public schools in the State. Additionally, the Department of Taxation is responsible for determining school district compliance with the requirements of the Local Government Budget Act (NRS 354.596). This dual authority requires a close working relationship between the Departments of Education and Taxation. As the necessity to provide for financial comparability between organizations both within and outside the State of Nevada has increased, the existing reporting structure has been expanded or modified to meet particular reporting needs with minimal coordination of the reporting elements. There are three major financial reports, one required by State law and two by Federal mandate, that compare the finances of elementary and secondary education. These are in addition to the annual budget and audited financial statement requirements in the NRS. While these reports have many commonalities, they are not identical and the collection and consolidation of the information for each has been primarily done manually with a great deal of effort on both the part of the school districts and charter schools and the Department of Education staff.
