Summary

Al Seeliger Elementary is a PK–5 school in Carson City, Nevada, serving 527 students as part of the Carson City district, which ranks 7th of 12 districts in Nevada. In 2025–2026, the school ranked 173rd of 376 Nevada elementary schools — 54th percentile, 3 stars. That is below its earlier high of 79th percentile in 2021–2022 and 78th in 2018–2019; since then it has stayed in the mid-50s to mid-60s.

Two strengths stand out. Reading and math proficiency are above district norms: 46.7% in reading and 43.8% in math, versus 38.3% and 30.2% districtwide and 45.2% and 36.2% statewide. Reading is the highest among the same-district schools compared here, and math is about even with Edith W. Fritsch Elementary (44.8%) and ahead of Mark Twain Elementary (28.3%), Carson Montessori (28.2%), Bordewich/Bray Elementary (37.2%), Fremont Elementary (36.5%) and Empire Elementary (20.2%). Chronic absenteeism is also very low — 11.6% in 2025–2026 versus 26.3% districtwide and 25.5% statewide — and has improved from 19.2% in 2023–2024. That beats most nearby schools, including Pinon Hills Elementary School (13.9%) and Dayton Elementary School (20.1%).

The clearest academic gap is science: 20% all-grades proficiency, below the district's 25% and the state's 25.5%, and far below the school's own reading and math. The 5th-grade science figure (20%) does top the district (19.7%) and state (17.4%) rows. Al Seeliger spends $13,650 per student with a 17.0 student-teacher ratio — less than several nearby Carson City and Douglas schools. About 45.5% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. Minden Elementary School and Pinon Hills Elementary School post higher reading and math, while Jacks Valley Elementary School, with a similar low-income share (43.96%), has similar reading (45.3%) but much lower math (32.2%). Old 2017–2018 subgroup rankings — historical only — showed stronger results for special education students and weaker results for English language learners and low-income students.
