Economic need is high: 99.9% of students qualify for free meals, 30% above the Nevada average, a Title I-weighted population that federal funding formulas prioritise.

Enrollment of 942 puts it in the larger third of Nevada schools by headcount.

Its Resource Investment Index lands in the upper third of 733 scored Nevada schools.

Among 174 similarly sized, similarly resourced-need Nevada schools statewide, it ranks #9, a top-tier result once campus size and economic need are matched.

The surrounding State-Sponsored Charter Schools spends $7,800 per pupil, 53% below the Nevada average, a leaner-resourced district than most.

Its district draws 15.7% of revenue from federal sources, an above-typical federal share that tends to track a higher-need student population.
