KTNV — Before you get your day started, we wanted to let you know what parents are doing to help address an ongoing issue outside CCSD schools.
We also wanted to let you know about a job fair happening today and some ways to save on your energy bills.
Parents volunteering to highlight need for crossing guards at more CCSD schools
We've been following the story of McKenzie Scott closely over the last few days. She was a senior at Arbor View High School who was hit and killed by a suspected drunk driver feet from campus.
Her death has sparked outrage. Parents, students, and teachers now demand that changes be made to prevent future tragedies.
Some parents, instead of waiting for change, are now taking matters into their own hands. Isabella Martin spoke to one of those parents.
Looking for a job? Hundreds of jobs up for grabs at today's job fair
Hundreds of local jobs will be open at the Las Vegas job fair.
The event is happening today at the Palms Casino Resort from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m.
In addition to the Palms, Crescent Schools of Gaming and Bartending, Nevada Health Link, and the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department are just a few companies looking to hire.
Organizers say job seekers should bring plenty of resumes and dress ready to interview.
The job fair is free to attend, but job seekers are asked to register by visiting JobErtising.com.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics states Nevada has the highest unemployment rate in the nation, making job fairs like this extremely popular. More than 6,400 job seekers attended the 2025 Spring Job Fair, setting an attendance record.
