Democracy Prep at Agassi High

Public, Charter Grades 9-12

Summary

Democracy Prep at Agassi High is a public charter high school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 362 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the highly-ranked State-Sponsored Charter Schools district, but its performance on key metrics lags behind many of the nearby public schools.

One of the school's most notable features is its significantly higher percentage of African American students (67.4%) compared to the surrounding schools, which range from 6.8% to 26.81% African American. Additionally, 100% of Democracy Prep at Agassi High's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. This is higher than the nearby schools, which range from 75.38% to 100% free and reduced lunch recipients. However, the school's test scores, particularly in ACT/Mathematics (22%) and ACT/English (40.7%) for 11th-grade students, are generally lower than the state-sponsored charter school averages and the Clark County School District averages.

Another key difference is the school's relatively high student-teacher ratio of 60.3 in the 2022-2023 school year, which is significantly higher than the nearby schools, which range from 3.2 to 26.5 students per teacher. Despite these challenges, Democracy Prep at Agassi High has shown some positive trends, such as improving its statewide ranking from 94 out of 96 Nevada high schools in 2020-2021 to 67 out of 96 in 2022-2023, suggesting that the school may have the potential to continue improving its performance with the right strategies and support.
