Summary

Churchill County Middle School is a public middle school in Fallon, NV serving 700 students in grades 6–8, and because there are no other schools within 20 miles, the most useful comparisons are to the Churchill district and to Nevada overall. In 2025–2026 the school ranked 121st of 148 Nevada schools (18th percentile) with 1 star, while the Churchill district ranked 11th of 12 Nevada districts (8th percentile), also with 1 star. The school's rank history shows a long-term downward trend: it was at the 52nd percentile with 3 stars in 2015–2016 and has sat in the 18th–20th percentile range with 1 star for the last several years.

Math and reading are the clearest academic weak spots. On 2025–2026 tests, 16% of students were proficient in math, versus 21% in the district and 36.2% statewide, and 25.4% were proficient in reading, versus 28.6% in the district and 45.2% statewide. Grade-level results follow the same pattern, with 8th grade lowest: 10.8% proficient in math (state: 27.9%) and 20.6% in reading (state: 41.6%). Science is the one subject where the school outperforms its district — 15.8% versus 12.8% — but that is still 9.7 points below Nevada's 25.5%, and science has fallen from 30.4% in 2022–2023, when it topped the state rate.

Chronic absenteeism was 31.6% in 2025–2026, above the state's 25.5% but slightly below the district's 31.9%, and it has swung widely, from 23.0% in 2021–2022 to 32.0% in 2022–2023, down to 24.9% in 2024–2025. The school reports 100% free/reduced lunch for three recent years, a high-poverty context that matters when reading these numbers. Per-student spending rose from $9,567 in 2020–2021 to $12,867 in 2023–2024, while math and reading proficiency stayed far below state levels. Older 2017–2018 subgroup data, which is not current, showed uneven school effectiveness, with English Language Learner students and low-income students among the lowest-ranked groups.
