Clarification, April 22, 2025 7:38 pm: NU Principal Kelly Rhoden, sent an email update to parents: "Today’s Student Walkout/Protest Addressing NJUHSD School Board’s No Vote on Resolution 22 Good evening, Miners and Miner families. Many of you have been asking me questions about the "District Wide Walkout" scheduled for today by students. There was a peaceful walkout by many students from Nevada Union High School and across the District in protest of last month’s no vote by the NJUHSD School Board on Resolution 22. Students organized on their own and held a peaceful protest on Ridge Road and outside the District Office. Administration, Campus Supervisor, and the Nevada County Sheriff were present to ensure the safety of our students. As a reminder, while we support students’ rights to express themselves respectfully, certain actions may violate district policy and result in disciplinary consequences. The attendance office is receiving a high volume of calls to excuse students from class for the protest. The attendance office has been advised that students' attendance cannot be cleared for a walkout/protest. There are still school consequences. Below is information that has been forwarded to me to help answer some of your questions. Please see bullet point #5 below. Per Board Administrative Regulation 5131.4: Student Disturbances - the following activities are prohibited and subject to discipline: Disturbing the peace, including fighting, provoking others to fight, or causing a riot; Disrupting school operations, including expression that incites unlawful acts or substantially disrupts school activity (Education Code 48907); Participating in unauthorized assemblies, sit-ins, or stand-ins that obstruct normal access to school areas; Refusing to disperse when directed by school personnel; Boycotting school, including any form of protest involving nonattendance during required instructional time. These absences will be recorded as unexcused, regardless of parent/guardian permission. Sincerely, Kelly Rhoden, Principal Nevada Union High School"
