Summary:

The 89431 zip code area in Nevada is home to two high schools: Procter R. Hug High School and Sparks High School. Both schools are struggling to provide a quality education, as evidenced by their low statewide rankings and poor academic performance.

Neither Procter R. Hug High School nor Sparks High School are standout performers. Procter R. Hug High School ranked 92nd out of 103 Nevada high schools in 2024-2025, with a 1-star rating, while Sparks High School ranked 102nd, with a 0-star rating. Both schools had a 4-year graduation rate of 81.6% in 2023-2024, which is below the state average. Additionally, both schools had high chronic absenteeism rates of 26.6% in 2024-2025, indicating a significant challenge in student engagement and attendance.

The academic performance of these schools is also a concern, as they consistently scored significantly below the Washoe County and Nevada averages on standardized tests, including the EOC Science Exam and the ACT in Mathematics and English. Furthermore, both schools had 100% of their students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, suggesting a high concentration of students from low-income families, which can present additional challenges for the schools. Overall, the data indicates a need for targeted interventions and support to improve the educational outcomes for the students in these schools.
