This is not a school that I would recommend. The staff turnover is huge and there is a reason for it. Close Quote

My grandchildren attend Doral Academy of Northern Nevada and I volunteer there. It is a WONDERFUL school. When I wait for the kids after school, it is so much fun to see all of the smiling, happy kids coming out at the end of the day. It is a very positive environment for learning with lots of parental involvement and support. All the faculty and staff without exception are excellent. Close Quote

This is one of the best schools in Northern NV. My child is very happy here and has been to several schools including a very prestigious private school. Doral blows these schools out of the water in terms of social emotional learning. The school administration and staff are top notch at Doral. They really care about each child and try to accommodate them as best as they can. I highly recommend this school. Close Quote
