The NCSO has completed it's investigation of the area, and we have been cleared to lift the lockdown at all locations.
Dear Parents and Guardians,
The safety and security of our students and staff are our highest priorities. I am writing to inform you that J.G. Johnson Elementary, Pahrump Valley High School (PVHS), Mt. Charleston Elementary, and Pathways Innovative Education have all been placed on a precautionary LOCKDOWN protocol at the request of the Nye County Sheriff’s Office (NCSO).
The Sheriff’s Office requested this protocol while addressing an incident report. Please be assured that this situation is ongoing, but all students and staff are safe and secure inside their respective school buildings.
During a Lockdown procedure, regular classroom activities pause, all exterior and interior doors are locked, and hallway traffic is restricted so emergency response personnel can effectively manage the surrounding neighborhood. No entry or exit from any of the affected campuses is permitted at this time. Please do not attempt to travel to any of the school sites, as access is strictly restricted for everyone's safety.
We are in constant communication with law enforcement and will send an update as soon as the Sheriff's Office clears the area and lifts the protocol. Thank you for your patience, trust, and cooperation as we keep our schools safe.
Sincerely,
School Administration & District Leadership

As we gear up for an incredible new school year, we want to make sure you have two very important dates marked on your calendar. Please join us for our upcoming Freshman event and Open House.
July 30th
Freshmen are invited to attend a "Trojan in Training".
Please join us for a morning dedicated to preparing you for your journey as a Trojan!
This event is for both students and parents. Following our opening welcome, students will rotate through three interactive sessions: Graduation Progress, Campus Tour, and How to Get Involved at PVHS. While students attend their sessions, parents may choose to leave or may stay and take a guided tour and access additional campus support.
Beat the lines! To ensure an on-time start, we are offering a Pre-Check-In at the Front Office on Wednesday, July 29th, from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
