Return to Learn/Return to Play

Return to Learn/Return to Play (Concussion Policy)

Under a new Nevada law (Senate Bill 80), effective July 1, 2024, students who have a head injury, such as a concussion, will be screened with a Return To Learn Protocol. As part of the Return to Learn Protocol, students who continue to experience symptoms as a result of the head injury may require additional assistance with their educational needs and will be referred to the school’s Section 504 Liaison for consideration of a 504 Plan to assist them during their recovery. Student-athletes who sustain a head injury during an athletic event will participate in both Return to Learn and Return to Play protocol as outlined in the new law.
