The head-of-household shall take every reasonable action to ensure the child is not at risk of failing to advance to the next grade level in school. If the head-of-household does not comply with the provisions of NRS 392.040 or the Division learns the child is at risk of failing to advance to the next grade level, the case manager will require the head-of-household to review and revise the Personal Responsibility Plan (PRP) as necessary to assist the head-of-household in complying and with helping the child improve academic performance. Minor parents in the household must attend educational activities directed toward the attainment of a high school diploma or its equivalent or an alternative educational program such as a vocational or technical school.
