It has an enrollment of 118 students in grades 9 through 12.[3] The school primarily serves students from Wells, as well as a number of students from Clover Valley, Metropolis, Montello, Oasis, and Deeth. Wells High School made AYP in 2010. Under No Child Left Behind, a school makes Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) if it achieves the minimum levels of improvement determined by the state of Nevada in terms of student performance and other accountability measures.[4]  HistoryWells High School was established in 1914 and suffered extensive damage in 2008 when a 6.0 earthquake hit Wells, Nevada.[5] Wells High School's gymnasium and auditorium building had significant damage from the shaking. It required $2.478 million worth of work that was completed by the beginning of the 2008/2009 school year (about 6 months). This project was achieved and the building was indeed ready for use by the beginning of the school year. Earthquake damage was repaired in an up-to-code fashion, but only those damaged elements that were damaged were repaired. Thus, the building was partially seismically strengthened.[6] Extracurricular activitiesAthleticsThe Leopards compete in the Northern Nevada 1A Region.
