The Carson City School District recognizes the situation regarding COVID-19 is very fluid, with conditions changing rapidly. Therefore, the following actions are being taken to best meet Governor Sisolak’s expectations in unprecedented circumstances.
Tuesday, March 17, all school employees should continue to work as directed by their site administrator or school principal.
Certified employees who can work from home should do so, under the coordination of their site administrator or school principal.
— As stated by Governor Sisolak, social distancing is not a one-size-fits-all – people should manage communication and meetings based on individual discretion.
— Deep cleaning and sanitizing of all the buildings will continue.
— Ill employees should stay home – coordinate with site administrator or school principal.
— Older people with underlying health conditions should stay home – coordinate with site administrator or school principal.

Beginning Monday, March 23, students will begin remote learning via distance teaching methods available through weekly materials provided on each school’s website homepage or printed packets available for pick-up from the school’s office.
Student engagement and participation will be documented.
Students will be able to retrieve any items or materials left at the school prior to the closure. Visits to the school should be coordinated with site administrator or school principal.

Please be aware that conditions associated with the school closure may change at any time.
More guidance will be provided if details change.
The Carson City School District encourage parents to assist in the effort to contain the potential spread of COVID-19 by keeping their children at home, by avoiding large private gatherings (more than 10 people), reinforcing proper hygiene techniques and maintaining social distancing. CCSD will react to all changing conditions associated with the virus or guidance from governmental agencies.
