Under existing law, each pupil of a public school is entitled to express himself or herself in a manner consistent with the rights guaranteed by the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution. Any such expression by pupils must not be disruptive to instruction or used to engage in discrimination based on race or bullying and must not be organized, broadcast or endorsed by a public school. (NRS 388.077) This bill establishes that the pupils of a public school are entitled to wear traditional tribal regalia or recognized objects of religious or cultural significance as an adornment at school graduation ceremonies. This bill provides that the board of trustees of a school district, the governing body of a charter school or the governing body of a university school for profoundly gifted pupils may nonetheless prohibit an item that is likely to cause a substantial disruption of, or material interference with, such a ceremony. This bill authorizes a pupil who is prohibited from wearing such an item to appeal that decision to the Superintendent of Public Instruction, who must consult with certain groups before rendering a decision on such an appeal. This bill further provides that, if the Superintendent of Public Instruction does not render a decision within 5 business days after an appeal is submitted, the appeal is deemed to be decided in favor of the pupil.
