NCSD schools

 * Amargosa Valley School
 * Beatty Elementary/Middle School
 * Duckwater School
 * By 1975 Duckwater School, with one teacher, had an enrollment count of six as students had withdrawn with the opening of the reservation school. Prior to loss of Native American students, the school district provided heated lunches, and there were two teachers instead of one. By 1986 enrollment was up to 13 and the relationship between the Duckwater School and Duckwater Shoshone School community had mended. The teacher by then had an aide for assistance, and used the aide and older students to have all students of all ages be on task. Of the 13 students, nine had at least one sibling also in their classes. Students came from ranching and mining families. Duckwater area students for high school generally move on to non-Nye County high schools: White Pine County School District facilities in Ely and Lund and Eureka County School District's Eureka County High School.
