About Our School Ratings
Where do ratings come from?
Ratings are based on GreatSchools composite scores (2024), which incorporate state test scores, academic progress, and equity data. Scores range from 1–10.
Are ratings the whole picture?
No — ratings are one data point, and small mountain schools can swing year to year. Visit schools, talk to teachers, and review official CDE / NDE data before deciding.
Which districts are covered?
Everything LT covers all four districts around the lake: Lake Tahoe Unified (South Shore), Tahoe Truckee Unified (North Shore + Truckee), Washoe County (Incline Village), and Douglas County (East Shore), plus area charters and private schools.
How often is data updated?
School data and ratings are reviewed annually. For the most current enrollment and boundary information, always check your district's official website.
