“He just started sixth grade,” said Ati Grinspun, talking about her son Liam. “He was in a blue ribbon school. He did amazing.”
She’s happy to know the Clark County School District is improving, according to a new state education report card.
“Obviously the teachers are doing something, so it is exciting to know that Nevada in general, we are getting a better education,” she said.
