In light of the increasing concern around COVID-19, Governor Sisolak, after consulting with local and state wide agencies including the Nevada Department of Education, health officials and school superintendents, has decided that all schools in the state of Nevada will close to students starting Monday, March 16th and cannot reopen no earlier than April 16, 2020.
Fueled by desire, dedication, hard work and an eager eye toward both the future and present needs of its students, Pershing County School District utilizes it's small size as a strength to provide an excellent learning environment.
