Superintendents appearing Thursday before the legislature's Interim Finance Committee proposed shortening the school year and bigger class sizes to try to make up an estimated $166 million shortfall in education funding.
Education officials say eliminating one day out of the required 180-day school year would save about $13 million.
Officials in Clark County say adding one student to every class in grades one through 12 would eliminate about 400 teachers and save $26 million in that district.
