Summary

Doral Academy Cactus is a K–8 charter school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 998 students as part of the State Sponsored Charter Schools district. It ranks 2nd out of 12 schools in its district (83rd percentile, 5 stars) and 35th out of 376 Nevada schools in 2025–2026 (91st percentile, 5 stars). In 2025–2026, 67.4% of students were proficient in math, 74% in reading, and 45.6% in science — well above both the district averages (48.7% math, 58% reading, 34.9% science) and Nevada state averages (36.2% math, 45.2% reading, 25.5% science).

Compared with nearby schools, Cactus posts the highest all-grades math and reading proficiency, ahead of Doral Academy West Pebble (64% math, 68.6% reading) and Legacy Traditional School Southwest Las Vegas (61.1% math, 67.5% reading). Science is essentially a tie with Legacy (45.6% vs. 45.8%). Grade-level results show particular strengths: 3rd grade math at 82.4% and 8th grade reading at 81.6%, both the top marks among nearby schools, plus strong 8th grade math (72.5%) and science (63.3%). The clearest weak spot is 5th grade science at 26.3%, which is above district and state but behind Doral West Pebble, Legacy, and Jones Blackhurst Jan L Elementary School. Science results for Fine Mark L Elementary School and Wright William V Elementary School are suppressed by the state.

Chronic absenteeism is 11.0%, below the district (17.2%) and state (25.5%) rates and lower than every nearby school except Doral West Pebble (9.2%); it has improved from 14.4% in 2023–2024. Cactus reports 17.94% free/reduced lunch and spends $8,990 per student — less than nearby Clark County schools ($11,077–$14,232) — with a student–teacher ratio of 23.2, higher than those schools' 15.8–18.0, so it achieves strong results with a comparatively lean resource profile.
