Funding

How Nevada funds schools

Nevada funds districts through the Pupil-Centered Funding Plan, which sets a statewide base per-pupil amount — about $9,416 per pupil for 2025–26 — and adds weighted funding for at-risk, English-learner, gifted-and-talented and special-education students. State and local revenue flow into the State Education Fund and are distributed on this per-pupil basis, replacing the old Nevada Plan.

District-level per-pupil spending and the local/state/federal revenue split for Humboldt School District are published in the federal school-finance files — see the full-data links below for the current figures.

Accountability

Report card & state results

Nevada rates districts through the Nevada School Performance Framework (NSPF), a 1-to-5-star rating built on proficiency, growth, graduation, English-learner progress and college-and-career readiness. Look up Humboldt School District on Nevada Report Card.

Accreditation

Accreditation status

Nevada has no state accreditation requirement; districts that pursue voluntary accreditation generally work with Cognia, the de facto K-12 accreditor. Look up Humboldt School District in the free Cognia registry.
