There were 3,349 students enrolled in Humboldt County School District in the 2023-24 school year, 1.1% more than the previous year, according to the Nevada Accountability Portal.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2023-24 school year, 51% of them were boys, and 49% were girls.

Data also showed that the majority of students were white, making up 53.1% of the Humboldt County School District's total enrollment.

Humboldt County School District roughly covers 11 schools within Humboldt Countyand has a main office in Winnemucca.

Among the 11 schools in the district, Albert M. Lowry High School recorded the highest enrollment of 989 students in the 2023-24 school year.

Enrollment in Nevada has experienced a notable decline, falling nearly 3.5% since the 2019-20 school year.

Although Nevada has seen some significant relief in chronic absenteeism since the pandemic, numbers are still high. In the 2023-24 school year, the state reported an improvement of roughly 10% in the number of chronically absent students. However, more than a quarter of students (25.9%) were chronically absent from classes. This mirrors a national trend, with estimates suggesting the number of chronically absent students in the U.S. has grown to over 16 million compared to pre-pandemic data.
