CCSD was never meant to be all (no) things to all people. The Nevada Constitution set up public education (ie CCSD) as a safety net, to provide primary skills to poor kids who would otherwise have no access. Few kids really fall into that category. For the most severely retarded the Constitution established state institutions. CCSD was NEVER meant to provide special this or that.
Public education has already made this state a magnet for parents who shirk their responsibility to educate their own children. If Nevada ever starts contracting with private schools to provide special ed, it will turn this state into a learning disabled magnet.
