Best Public Schools in Yerington, NV


Summary:

The city of Yerington, Nevada is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Yerington Elementary School, Yerington Intermediate School, and Yerington High School. These schools face significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance, particularly in math, across all grade levels.

The Yerington school district serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, as evidenced by the very high free/reduced lunch rates of 100% at the elementary and intermediate schools, and 46.19% at the high school. This suggests the district may require additional resources and targeted support to address the unique needs of its student body. While the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios and above-average per-student spending, the academic outcomes do not yet reflect the level of investment, indicating a need to examine how resources are being utilized.

Across the three schools, test scores on state assessments are consistently below the Lyon district and Nevada state averages, particularly in math. The high school's performance is relatively better than the lower grade levels, but still lags behind state standards. Addressing the root causes of the academic challenges, which appear to compound as students progress through the grade levels, will be crucial for the district to drive meaningful improvement in student outcomes.
