The Clark County School District (CCSD) is celebrating Black History Month by sharing the inspiring stories of CCSD’s African-American namesakes who were pioneers in their profession and some of the District’s firsts in education. 

From the very first licensed educator to the District’s first African-American superintendent, these namesakes were leaders in the community and made impactful contributions to CCSD. 

Follow along on CCSD’s official social media channels: Facebook, X and Instagram
