Pyramid Lake Junior/Senior High School
Nixon, NV
We connected with Pyramid Lake in 2022 through our board member, Sadie Jo Smokey-Crews, a member of the Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California. Sadie Joe’s sister, Tasheena Mix, is our key contact at Pyramid Lake. Tasheena has advised that virtually all of the Pyramid Lake students are Indigenous, and include members of the Native Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe, the Reno-Sparks Indian Colony, the Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California, and the Walker River Paiute Tribe.
Thank you for your work to provide dignity, encouragement and support to our future mothers, aunties, grandmothers and community leaders.
Student-led initiative – period supplies now available in school restrooms at Pyramid Lake.
