Data showed that Pershing County welcomed a total of 637 students during the 2023-24 school year. Among them, American Indian or Alaskan Native students comprised 4.1% of the student body to be the least represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the four schools in Pershing County, Lovelock Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of American Indian or Alaskan Native students in the 2023-24 school year, with a total of 14 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.
