LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Online registration for Clark County School District (CCSD) students for the 2021-22 school year is now open.
The school year will open with students attending full-time face-to-face five days a week at all schools. Families who wish to continue with distance education will need to opt-in for distance education.
The deadline to opt-in for full-time distance education is May 21 to allow schools time to plan staffing for the upcoming school year.
Late requests for full-time distance education will be based on available space at each school.
