Summary:
The city of Dayton, Nevada is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. Based on the available data, the schools in Dayton show a mix of performance, with some standout elementary schools and a consistently underperforming high school.
Dayton Elementary School and Riverview Elementary School are the top-performing elementary schools, outperforming the Lyon district and Nevada state averages in mathematics and reading proficiency. These schools also have relatively low student-teacher ratios. In contrast, Dayton Intermediate School has the highest free/reduced lunch rate at 100%, which may indicate significant socioeconomic challenges for its students.
The data suggests that Dayton High School is the weakest performer, consistently ranking in the bottom quarter of Nevada high schools with a 1-star rating. The school's proficiency rates in science, mathematics, and English were significantly below the district and state averages. This underperformance persists despite the high school having the lowest spending per student among the Dayton schools.
