Of the 151 Lander County students who took part in the CRT in the 2023-24 school year, 86.8% did not meet science benchmarks, according to the Nevada Accountability Portal.

The number of students who failed to meet expectations in the subject rose compared to the previous school year.

In Lander County, most of the students who fell below proficiency were at the lowest performance level.

Criterion-Referenced Tests (CRTs) are used to evaluate students' proficiency in science, measuring their performance against state academic standards.

Nevada's educational system ranked third-lowest in the U.S. for educational quality, student outcomes, and overall school safety, only ahead of Louisiana and Arizona, according to an analysis from the World Population Review.
