Data showed that Carson City welcomed a total of 7,654 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Black students comprised 0.8% of the student body to be the second least represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 12 schools in Carson City, Carson High School recorded the highest enrollment of Black students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 18 students.

Enrollment in Nevada has experienced a notable decline, falling nearly 2% over the last four years.

Meanwhile, Nevada has roughly one teacher for every 20 students, compared to the national average of one teacher for every 16 students. A higher student-to-teacher ratio has been found to negatively impact students' school performance.
