Data showed that Elko County welcomed a total of 10,203 students during the 2023-24 school year. Among them, Black students comprised 0.6% of the student body to be the second least represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the 36 schools in Elko County, Independence High School recorded the highest enrollment of Black students in the 2023-24 school year, with a total of 27 students.
Enrollment in Nevada public schools has dropped nearly 2% in the last four years.
Nevertheless, Nevada has roughly one teacher for every 21 students, well above to the national average of one teacher for every 16 students. A higher student-to-teacher ratio has been found to negatively impact students' school performance.
