Humboldt


Summary:

The Humboldt school district in Nevada consists of 13 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The district as a whole is ranked 6 out of 13 in Nevada and is rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger. While some schools in the district, such as Sonoma Heights Elementary and Winnemucca Junior High School, are performing well above the district and state averages, others, like Grass Valley Elementary and McDermitt High School, are struggling.

The smaller, more rural schools in the Humboldt district face unique challenges, with very high per-student spending but low student populations, which can make it difficult to provide a comprehensive educational experience. These schools, such as Denio, Kings River, and the McDermitt schools, have variable test scores, but some, like Orovada School and Paradise Valley School, have impressively high reading proficiency rates.

The high rates of free/reduced lunch eligibility across the Humboldt district indicate that many students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which likely presents additional challenges for schools in supporting student learning and achievement. The district could benefit from targeted interventions and support for the lower-performing schools, to help bring them up to the level of the top-performing schools, such as Sonoma Heights Elementary and Winnemucca Junior High School.
