Help for CCSD Teachers Losing Their jobs

by Dr. Victoria Boyd

May 29, 2012

The ‘Las Vegas Sun’ May 16, 2012, Clark County School District (CCSD) announced it will release 1015 teachers. The layoffs will constitute the largest actual “reduction in work force” the districts recent history. These deep cuts mean larger classroom sizes for students and teachers scrambling to figure out what's next for them."

When layoffs like this occur, it’s stressful and disturbing. What will those 1,015 laid off teachers do next? Dr. Victoria Boyd made the transition out of education and understands the teacher’s pain and anxiety. Her mission is to motivate those being forced out to build new careers based on passion. She hopes to provide teachers the tools they need to have a smooth transition and love their new life.

Boyd, author of “The Wealthy Teacher” wrote the book to help educators caught in the current wave of frustration due to layoffs and job dissatisfaction. It provides motivation and tools to ensure their future by creating a new business. This summer workshops sponsored by HP Computers are scheduled.

Teachers who are ideal for Boyd’s programs include those who are: • Tired of the employment roller coaster ups and downs • Place a high value on following their passion with their career/business choices • Want to finally have control over their future and their income potential • Value investing in themselves educationally to grow in new directions • Seek guidance and support on, “What’s next for me in my life?”

A long time Education Consultant, she trained teachers and administrators for over 20 years in leadership. She is also recognized for her expertise in non-profit management which she teaches at UNLV. With education an management background, Dr. Boyd recognizes that by sharing her expertise she can address this urgent crisis and provide teachers the tools they need for life outside of education.

CCSD Schools Superintendent Dwight Jones said. “The school district faces a $63-million deficit. The layoffs are expected save the district about $60.1 million, nearly the size of the deficit.”
