HCSD Rural Remote Schools

In Nevada, every school must create a School Performance Plan each year. This plan focuses on three key areas: Student Success—ensuring students achieve their academic goals, Adult Learning—helping teachers and staff grow professionally, and Connectedness—fostering strong relationships among students, families, staff, and the community.

In Humboldt County School District (HCSD), we believe that students, staff, parents, and community members all support helping our schools grow and improve. Schools start by reviewing last year’s goals and gathering information from many sources to understand where improvements are needed in these three areas.  It’s also important to know that federal law requires each state to evaluate school performance. In Nevada, we use the Nevada School Performance Framework (NSPF), which gives every school a star rating from one to five stars. One star is the lowest, and five stars is the highest, providing a clear picture of how schools are doing and where they can grow.
