Summary:
The 48811 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is a virtual academy). While the schools in this area have some standout elements, the data reveals consistent underperformance and potential equity concerns across the district.
Carson City Elementary School stands out with relatively strong test scores, a lower chronic absenteeism rate, and a more favorable student-teacher ratio compared to the other schools. In contrast, the Carson CityCrystal Virtual Academy struggles with a very low graduation rate, high dropout rate, and extremely high chronic absenteeism, despite serving a more diverse student population and spending significantly less per student.
Across the Carson City-Crystal Area Schools, test scores and academic performance generally lag behind state averages, and the district as a whole ranks 455 out of 610 in the state. Additionally, the high percentage of students eligible for free/reduced-price lunch and the lack of racial diversity in the student population suggest potential equity concerns that may need to be addressed through targeted interventions and strategies.
