Dear Families,
The safety of our students is our highest priority. We are writing to provide accurate information regarding a safety report investigated by school and district leadership in coordination with the Sheriff’s Department.
Recently, a report was made through SafeVoice regarding a potential threat. We immediately partnered with the Nye County Sheriff’s Office and the Nevada Office of Emergency Management to investigate. Experts have determined that this was a "swatting" attempt, a hoax designed to cause disruption, which has affected numerous schools in Nevada today with identical messages.
The situation is resolved, and our campus is safe for school to proceed normally. There will be an increased law enforcement presence on campus throughout the day to provide extra support and peace of mind for our students and staff.
We are grateful for the systems that allow for quick reporting and for the swift action of our local law enforcement.
Sincerely,
Desiree Veloz, Principal
Robert Williams, Communications Officer
– This alert is being sent to our Pahrump community and guardians via Rooms, websites, and Facebook. PVHS contacts will also receive it via text.

Power has returned to Hafen and Floyd. School will go on normally.

We were one click away from a very different message when the power was restored, and we really appreciate all of the parents who called asking about the situation.

The fire department cleared us to return to the building and continue instruction.
Dear Hafen Elementary School Families,
I am writing to inform you about a safety situation on campus. This morning, the fire alarm system at our school was triggered.
We immediately implemented our Fire/Evacuation emergency procedure.
I want to assure you that all students and staff are safe and have been accounted for.
The Fire Department is currently on-site and investigating the cause of the alarm. There is no visible fire. We are remaining evacuated out of an abundance of caution while they complete their investigation.
The safety of our students is our highest priority. We will send another update once the Fire Department has given the "all-clear" and the situation is resolved.
Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely,
Jared Peruch
Principal, Hafen Elementary School
