Summary

Bordewich/Bray Elementary is a public elementary school located in Carson City, Nevada, serving students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade with a total enrollment of 528 students. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with proficiency rates in mathematics and reading that are sometimes higher than the Carson City averages but lower than the state averages. The school has also struggled with high rates of chronic absenteeism, which are significantly higher than the state average.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and student-teacher ratio, which are comparable to nearby schools, Bordewich/Bray Elementary has consistently underperformed in mathematics and science compared to the state and district averages. The school's diverse student population, with a significant percentage of Hispanic and low socioeconomic status students, highlights the need for tailored support and interventions to ensure equitable outcomes for all subgroups. The relatively lower performance of special education students compared to their peers is an area that requires further investigation and targeted support.

Addressing the challenges faced by Bordewich/Bray Elementary, such as improving attendance, optimizing resource allocation, and implementing targeted interventions in mathematics and science, could be key to improving the school's overall performance and outcomes for its diverse student population. Comparing the school's performance to nearby Washoe County and Douglas district schools may provide additional insights and opportunities for collaboration and learning.
