Best Public Schools in Zip Code 89061

Summary:

The 89061 zip code area in Nevada is home to two elementary schools - Floyd Elementary School and Hafen Elementary School. Both schools serve high-need student populations, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch programs.

Of the two schools, Floyd Elementary appears to be the higher performer, consistently ranking 3 stars on the statewide SchoolDigger rankings compared to Hafen Elementary's 1-2 star ratings. Floyd outperforms Hafen on most academic proficiency metrics, including math, reading, and science. However, both schools have seen declines in proficiency rates from the previous year, which is concerning.

A key challenge facing both schools is very high chronic absenteeism rates, exceeding 25% in the 2024-2025 school year. Addressing attendance issues should be a priority, as this is likely a major factor impacting academic performance. Overall, while Floyd Elementary stands out as the stronger performer, both schools in the Nye County district have room for improvement, especially in boosting math and science proficiency to meet state averages.
