LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Channel 13 has learned from CCSD about an incident involving a juvenile's arrest at Sierra Vista High School.

According to CCSD, administrators "received a report of a firearm on campus" on Thursday.

CCSD Police responded to the incident, recovered the gun, and arrested a juvenile involved.

No students or staff were directly threatened as a result. At this time, all policies and procedures in place are being followed, CCSD said.

"Please take this opportunity to discuss school safety with your student. If they ever face a situation where they are unsure whether to share information with an adult, please remind them never to hesitate to report anything that may be a safety issue. Students and parents can also make reports through the SafeVoice reporting system by calling 1-833-216-SAFE(7233), through the website... or through the free downloadable phone app.

We would also like to ask parents to discuss the CCSD Student Code of Conduct with their students. As a reminder, weapons are not tolerated on school campuses, and CCSD Regulation 5141.1 calls for mandatory expulsion for firearms." — CCSD communications department
