Carson City

Summary:

The Carson City School District in Nevada operates 12 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. The district serves a diverse student population with varying academic performance across its schools.

Among the standout schools in the district, Edith W. Fritsch Elementary ranks 88th out of 384 Nevada elementary schools and is rated 4 out of 5 stars, with strong test scores in math, reading, and science. Mark Twain Elementary and Al Seeliger Elementary also perform well, ranking in the top 150 elementary schools in the state. In contrast, Eagle Valley Middle School lags behind with lower proficiency rates in math and reading.

The data reveals significant variation in school performance, which appears to be correlated with socioeconomic status, as measured by free and reduced-price lunch rates. Schools with higher poverty levels, such as Fremont Elementary and Bordewich/Bray Elementary, tend to have lower test scores. Additionally, the Carson Montessori charter school stands out for its high reading proficiency, while the Pioneer Academy alternative school has a unique student population and performance profile.
