Churchill County School District Superintendent Derild Parsons was recently recognized for his service to Churchill County School District – service that spans a quarter of a century and multiple educator roles. He was honored with a 25-year service pin and Certificate of Appreciation and Recognition by the Board of Trustees. 

Parsons began his career in the classrooms of West End and Lahontan Elementary before becoming CCSD Dean of Students, Director of Special Services, and Director of Learning and Innovation. While moving from the classroom to district leadership, Parsons has long strived to build lasting connections with students, family, and staff. 

Years of student-focused teaching and programming served as the perfect backdrop for Parson's most recent educator role as CCSD superintendent - the first local superintendent promoted from within the district since the 1990s. 

As a longtime resident and educator, Parsons continues in his efforts to support students, staff, and the Fallon community. 

Congratulations, Superintendent Parsons. Thank you for 25 years of dedicated service.
