Summary

East Valley Elementary School is a PK–4 school in Fernley, Nevada, serving 518 students as part of the Lyon County district. That district ranks near the bottom of Nevada (10th of 12 districts, at the 17th percentile with 1 star), and East Valley's own 2025–2026 rank is 247th of 376 Nevada schools — the 34th percentile with 2 stars.

The bigger story is the trend. East Valley sat at the 76th percentile with 4 stars in 2022–2023 and has slid every year since: 68 in 2023–2024, 51 in 2024–2025, and 34 in 2025–2026 — a 42-percentile-point drop. Reading is the clearest weakness: all-grades reading fell from 51.6 in 2022–2023 to 33.8 in 2025–2026, well below the state's 45.2, with 3rd-grade reading at 34.4 versus 44.4 statewide and 4th grade at 33.3 versus 45.4. Math is comparatively stronger at 37.6 all grades, though at the tested grades it still trails the state (3rd grade 38.7 vs. 46.7; 4th grade 36.8 vs. 43.4).

Among nearby Lyon PK–4 schools, East Valley is currently the strongest: it outranks Silver Stage Elementary School, Fernley Elementary School, and Cottonwood Elementary School, with higher math and reading proficiency than all three and lower chronic absenteeism (33.6% vs. 36.1%, 44.3%, and 36.7%). That rate is still above Nevada's 25.5%. It achieves this with the group's highest student-teacher ratio (21.5) and lower spending than several peers ($13,695), which suggests efficiency even as those pressures remain. Natchez Elementary in Washoe County scores much higher (49.2 math, 46.0 reading), but its 121-student enrollment, K–5 span, and $29,596 spending make it a poor direct comparison. The only subgroup data available dates to 2017–2018 and is too old to describe current performance.
