Summary

Winnemucca Grammar School is an elementary school serving grades PK-4 in Winnemucca, Nevada, part of the Humboldt School District. With 274 students, the school has consistently outperformed its district and the state of Nevada in both math and reading proficiency, though it has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates and a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Winnemucca Grammar School's performance varies significantly by student subgroup, with female students and White students outperforming their male and Hispanic counterparts. English Language Learners and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds perform the worst, ranking in the bottom 10% of Nevada elementary schools in these categories. Compared to nearby schools, Grass Valley Elementary has lower test scores and a higher percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch, while Sonoma Heights Elementary outperforms Winnemucca Grammar School on most metrics.

Despite its relatively strong performance within the district, Winnemucca Grammar School's statewide ranking has declined over the past decade, from 77th out of 347 schools in 2015-2016 to 245th out of 384 schools in 2022-2023. This suggests the school may be struggling to keep pace with improvements in other Nevada elementary schools, and highlights the need for targeted interventions to address the unique challenges facing the Winnemucca Grammar School community.
