Elko County CCR results are in, and 16.9% of the students were considered proficient in Mathematics, according to the Nevada Accountability Portal.

This translates to roughly 49 students out of 291 hitting the benchmarks on the subject. Notably, 6.2% of students surpassed these expectations, with a total of 18 students who went beyond the standard requirements.

Compared to last year’s 33.7%, this year’s results reflect decline in the county’s Mathematics passing rate.

The College and Career Readiness test is given to students in the 11th grade to determine if they are ready for the higher standards and difficulties of college and post-secondary learning. Scores on the CCR don't influence if a student graduates on time.

According to the Nation's Report Card data, there is a significant disparity in academic performance between minority students and their white peers in Nevada's schools. For example, in 2022, 8th-grade reading exams revealed that 46% of African American and 39% of Hispanic students failed, compared to 21% of white students. Similar trends were also seen in math and across different grade levels.
