Best Public Schools in Zip Code 89061

Summary:

The 89061 zip code area in Nevada is home to two elementary schools - Floyd Elementary School and Hafen Elementary School. While both schools serve high-poverty student populations, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Floyd Elementary stands out as the stronger performer academically.

Floyd Elementary has higher test scores than Hafen Elementary across most grade levels and subject areas, including being significantly above the Nye County and Nevada state averages in many cases. Floyd Elementary also has a higher SchoolDigger star rating of 3 stars, compared to 1-2 stars for Hafen Elementary.

While both schools have similar student demographics and funding levels above the state average, the significant gap in academic performance between the two schools suggests there may be differences in teaching quality, resources, or other factors contributing to the disparity. Additionally, the low science proficiency rates across both schools could be an area of focus for improvement efforts to support student learning in this subject area.
