Summary

Nevada Virtual Charter School is a public charter high school located in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving grades 6-12 with an enrollment of 1,717 students. While the school is part of the highly-ranked State Sponsored Charter Schools district, it has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Nevada high schools and received a below-average 2-3 star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with relatively strong rankings for female and male students, but struggling with Hispanic, White, and English Language Learner populations. Academically, Nevada Virtual Charter School consistently underperforms the state and its district in standardized test scores, particularly in mathematics, where proficiency rates range from just 6% to 11.7% compared to the state's 26.8% to 31.6%. The school's four-year graduation rates, while slightly below the state average, have ranged from 81.4% to 87.8% in recent years. Additionally, Nevada Virtual Charter School has grappled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 7.4% to 26.6%.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Nevada State High School Henderson, Coral Academy Sandy Ridge, and Explore Knowledge Academy J-Senior High School, Nevada Virtual Charter School generally underperforms in terms of statewide rankings, academic achievement, and other key metrics. These findings suggest that the school's virtual learning model may present unique challenges in engaging students and maintaining academic performance, particularly in core subjects like mathematics.

Not happy with this. My family had a student finishing 5th grade this year. This student had dyslexia/learning issues and the teachers, mainly one of them, did not follow this students I.E.P. all year. The one teacher said mentioned, and ELA teacher I believe, felt compelled to place students in what she referred to as the "MIA Room". If a student did not respond in 2 seconds to let the teacher know they are there, the teacher pulls the student from the rest of the class online, into said MIA Room to explain why they are in there. This teacher is the only one who has done this, and instead of alerting the parents via email, she does that.
Ii am also not happy with the loaded extra websites the students have to use to do yet more work then this said student can handle. If the students are going to be taught in a virtual classroom, then ALL work should remain in the classroom just like a regular school, not these extra websites on TOP of the OLS work they already need to do. Overall, it is okay the students are at home to do schooling, but there has been mention of closing this school down, and I feel maybe it needs to be. Close Quote

I've been with Nevada Virtual Academy for 5 years and this school year I'm pulling my 2 childern out of this school. NVVA has got bad the teachers don't care anymore there are so many students falling thru the cracks and no one cares. The courses them selfs are ok but the teachers don't even teach the childern anything. This school use to be good back 4 years ago but now I will not go back to NVVA again. Not to mention their is no activities or anything for the children to meet others. They use to have clubs and etc.. but the do not anymore. The school during the past school year almost got their funding cut because of the test scores and graduation rates are so low... They do not provide computers to the students anymore either you have to go thru a speacil part of signing up but the computers they send are horrible I have had to send them back every semester if that.

I do not recommend this school at all after 5 years strong with NVVA they have lost students and are losing more.. Close Quote
