Albert M. Lowry High School

Albert M. Lowry High School is a public high school located in Winnemucca, Nevada, serving 989 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Humboldt School District, which is ranked 6 out of 12 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the school's four-year graduation rates have been relatively stable, ranging from 81.4% to 93.7% over the past few years, its academic performance has consistently ranked in the lower half of Nevada high schools, with proficiency rates below the state and district averages in science, math, and English. The school's performance on specific student subgroups, such as female, Hispanic, and white students, also indicates the need for targeted interventions to address achievement gaps. Additionally, the school has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 25.6% to 39.5% over the past few years, which may be contributing to the overall academic underperformance.

The school serves a population with a higher proportion of students from low-income families, with 35.49% to 37.7% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch over the past few years. This suggests that the school may face unique challenges and require additional resources and support to address the needs of its student population. While the school's per-student spending has increased over the years, from $10,618 in 2018-2019 to $11,986 in 2021-2022, it is unclear whether these resources are being effectively utilized to support student learning and achievement.
