Summary:
The Nevada City School of the Arts is the sole elementary school located within the Nevada City School of the Arts District in California. This standout school has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past two school years and ranks in the top third of all California elementary schools.
Nevada City School of the Arts excels in English Language Arts/Literacy, with students outperforming the state average across all grade levels. However, the school's mathematics performance is more mixed, with some grade levels exceeding the state average and others falling behind. The school's science proficiency, as measured by the CAST exam, is also strong, with 5th and 8th-grade students outperforming the state average.
While the school has a relatively high rate of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, it maintains a lower student-teacher ratio compared to the state average. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is notably higher than the state average, which may be an area of concern that the school could address to further support student learning and engagement.
