Summary

Sports Leadership and Management Academy is a public charter school in Henderson, Nevada that serves grades K-12 and has 1,843 students. The school is part of the State Sponsored Charter Schools district, which is ranked 1 out of 12 districts in Nevada and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school has consistently high 4-year graduation rates, ranging from 81.4% to 83.8%, which is on par with or slightly higher than the state average. However, it has relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.3% to 26.6%, which is higher than the state average and some nearby charter schools. Academically, the school's test scores on SBAC Math, SBAC Reading, and SBAC Science are generally lower than the state sponsored charter school average and the state average across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's SBAC Math proficiency rate for all grades is 36.6% compared to 49.1% for state sponsored charters and 35.4% for Nevada.

Compared to nearby charter schools in the same district, such as Pinecrest Academy of Nevada Cadence, Sports Leadership and Management Academy generally underperforms on academic metrics. The school's very high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 58.36% to 100%, indicate it is serving a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, which may contribute to some of the academic performance challenges. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio is higher than nearby charters, ranging from 36.1 to 42.3, suggesting the school may have room to invest more in its instructional staff to support student learning.
