Elko

The Elko school district in Nevada consists of 33 schools, including 16 elementary schools, 8 middle schools, 8 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The data reveals significant disparities in performance, demographics, and resources across the schools in the district.

Some standout schools include Spring Creek High School, which has consistently ranked among the top 60 high schools in Nevada, and Spring Creek Elementary School, which has also been a top performer in the district. In contrast, smaller schools like Montello Elementary and Ruby Valley Elementary have very low enrollments and often lag behind their peers in test scores and other metrics.

The data also highlights significant differences in student demographics, test scores, free and reduced lunch rates, spending per student, and student-teacher ratios across the schools in the Elko district. These disparities suggest that students may not have equitable access to educational opportunities, and further investigation is warranted to understand the factors contributing to these differences and develop targeted interventions to support all students in the district.
