Bill overview
This bill allows Nevada school districts and charter schools to offer academic credit to high school students (in junior high or middle school) for completing approved outdoor recreational activities outside of regular school hours. These activities must involve spending significant time outdoors and teach relevant outdoor skills like identifying plants and animals, building trails, or learning survival skills. Schools will determine the amount of credit awarded and establish procedures for students to apply for it.
