Silver Stage Middle School

Summary:

Silver Stage Middle School is a public middle school located in Silver Springs, Nevada, serving grades 5-8 with a total enrollment of 329 students. The school is part of the Lyon School District, which is ranked 11th out of 13 districts in Nevada and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's high spending per student, which has increased from $9,756 in 2018-2019 to $11,521 in 2021-2022, Silver Stage Middle School consistently underperforms compared to the Lyon School District and the state of Nevada in standardized test scores across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 9.9% of students at Silver Stage Middle School were proficient or better in SBAC Mathematics, compared to 24.6% in the Lyon School District and 32.6% statewide. Similarly, in SBAC Reading, only 20.9% of students at Silver Stage Middle School were proficient or better, compared to 29.6% in the Lyon School District and 41.3% statewide. This trend is concerning and suggests that the school may be struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Dayton Intermediate School and Silverland Middle School, while also part of the Lyon School District, perform better academically than Silver Stage Middle School. This suggests that there may be opportunities for Silver Stage Middle School to learn from the practices and strategies of its higher-performing counterparts within the same district.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
