What a Nevada public school must do when it suspends or expels your child — the caps, the hearing, and where the appeal clock actually lives.
Federal floor (all states): notice of the charges, an explanation of the evidence if your child denies them, and a chance to tell their side before a suspension of up to 10 days (Goss v. Lopez). With an IEP, the federal discipline clock adds the 10-school-day manifestation review and the 45-school-day interim-setting rules (34 CFR §§300.530–300.536).
Single suspension length: no statewide cap was verified in state law.
Hearing: A student may appeal a suspension or expulsion, and a hearing must be scheduled within 5 days of the appeal (NRS 392.4673)..
Appeal deadline in state law: 5 days to appeal a suspension or expulsion (NRS 392.4673) — to district appeal process under NRS 392.4673.
Expulsion length: no statewide maximum verified — district-set.
