Non-locking, signal-blocking phone pouches
There are also some new additions for the district this year, such as non-locking, signal-blocking pouches for students' cell phones for middle and high schools.
Weapons detection system
CCSD is also implementing a new weapons detection system for large sporting events and student gatherings — these will replace handheld metal detectors.
CCSD student IDs
Also new this year is the requirement to wear student IDs for middle and high schoolers. CCSD is asking students to wear these IDs on lanyards provided by the school so staff can identify students. These new IDs will also provide information on SaveVoice — an anonymous reporting system for threats and for the well-being of Nevada students.
Concussion protocol
The district said students who receive a head injury and continue to experience symptoms will undergo a Return To Learn Protocol screening process — this will give them additional resources and assistance with their education needs.
Students will be referred to their school's Section 504 Liason for "consideration of a 504 Plan to assist them during their recovery."
If a student receives a head injury while participating in a sporting event, they will follow a Return To Play and a Return To Learn protocal as outlined in CCSD's Concussion Policy.
This protocol was made to be in accordance with Nevada Senate Bill 80, which went into effect on July 1, 2024.
