List of school districts in Nevada

This is a list of school districts in Nevada which are consolidated by county (and independent city for Carson City),[1] There is a state-wide school authority exclusive to public charter schools, State Public Charter School Authority (SPCSA).[2]

All Nevada school districts are independent governmental agencies. None are dependent on other layers of government.[3]

As of the 2018-2019 school year, 66% of the public school students in Nevada were in the Clark County school district, 13% were in the Washoe County school district, 9% were in charter schools under the SPCSA, and 12% were in all other school districts and systems.[4] As of 2025 the Clark County school district had the largest enrollment in Nevada and SPCSA the second largest.[5]

Public

Charter

In Nevada, publicly-funded charter schools not part of another school district are part of the Nevada State Public School Charter Authority, a consolidated, state-wide school district.[6] After it absorbed six charter schools previously overseen by the Clark County School District, it became the second-largest local education authority in the state.[5]
