Gov. Steve Sisolak met with the Las Vegas Alliance of Black School Educators on Jan. 12.
"I was grateful for the opportunity to directly hear from the leadership and members of the Las Vegas Alliance of Black Educators as we discussed their ongoing efforts in serving Nevada's students, families and communities," Sisolak in a release from his office.
Sisolak joined Superintendent of Public Instruction Jhone Ebert and Nevada Director of Health and Human Services Director Richard Whitley in attending a Las Vegas Alliance of Black Educators meeting virtually.
"The State will continue to work alongside educational partners in order to ensure the needs of all our students are met and that they have access to the tools they need to succeed," the governor said. "Our student's safety and continual education remains our top priority."
They had the opportunity to hear from the Las Vegas Alliance of Black Educators President Kamilah Bywaters about their ongoing developments and discuss the state of education in Nevada.
A reflection of the Black experience and voice was central to the conversation as they discussed ways the State and the alliance can work together to help meet the needs of Black students, families and communities, the release said.
