Summary

Damonte Ranch High School is a large comprehensive public high school serving grades 9–12 in south Reno, Nevada, with 1,738 students — the biggest enrollment in its comparison group — and it belongs to the Washoe County school district, which ranks 4th of 12 districts statewide.

Parents should know the school is drifting downward. In 2025–2026 it ranks 45th of 105 Nevada high schools (57th percentile, 3 stars), down from a top-quartile, 4-star standing in 2021–22 (26th of 96, 73rd percentile) — a loss of roughly 16 percentile points it has not recovered. Chronic absenteeism is the standout concern at 37.7%, 10.2 points above its district and 12.2 points above the state, and it has exceeded both benchmarks in four of the past five reported years. The graduation rate, once a strength, has declined four years running — 88.3% in 2020–21 to 83.8% in 2024–2025 — slipping below the state for the first time. On the plus side, ACT math is a genuine bright spot: 34% of 11th graders proficient versus 26.9% district and 22.6% state, on a clear upward trend. ACT English (53.3%) is above district and state, but only barely.

Neighboring schools offer useful context. Galena High School sits 4.2 miles away with similar absenteeism and spending, yet ranks 17th of 105 with a 93.5% graduation rate; its free/reduced-lunch rate is 13.0% versus Damonte's 31.6%. Against struggling peers Sparks High School and Earl Wooster High School, Damonte Ranch is far stronger academically. But it trails the area's selective and charter options — Academy Of Arts Careers & Technical, Coral Academy High School, and Galena — on every academic measure, most sharply in English and EOC science. Its weakest signal: low-income students fell to the 14th percentile (1 star) even as nearly every other group improved.
