High Schools in Lyon

The Lyon school district in Nevada is home to 5 high schools, serving students in grades 9-12. These schools vary in their academic performance, with Silver Stage High School standing out as the highest-ranked school in the district, ranking 58th out of 97 Nevada high schools and earning a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Silver Stage High School also boasts the highest science proficiency rates, with 23.2% of all students and 42.9% of 9th graders scoring proficient or better on the EOC Science Exam.

While the schools in the Lyon district generally perform below the state averages in math and English proficiency on the ACT exam, Yerington High School stands out for serving a more economically disadvantaged student population, with 46.19% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023. This suggests that socioeconomic factors may play a role in the academic outcomes observed across the district.

The data also reveals fluctuations in the statewide rankings and SchoolDigger ratings for some schools, such as Dayton High School and Yerington High School, indicating the need for a deeper analysis to understand the factors driving these changes. Additionally, Eagle Ridge High School, with only 9 students, appears to be an outlier in the data set, and more information would be needed to understand the context and performance of this very small school.
