Summary

Nevada Prep Charter School is a public charter middle school serving grades 3-8 in Las Vegas, Nevada, with 314 students. The school is part of the State Sponsored Charter Schools district, which is ranked 1 out of 12 districts in the state and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's high per-student spending of $11,376 in 2021-2022, which is more than the nearby public middle schools, Nevada Prep Charter School has consistently underperformed academically compared to the Clark County district and the state of Nevada. In 2024-2025, only 12.3% of students were proficient or better in SBAC Mathematics, compared to 49.1% for the district and 35.4% for the state. The school's reading and science proficiency rates are also significantly lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, Nevada Prep Charter School has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.3% to 47.5% in recent years, which is much higher than the state average.

Despite the higher per-student spending, Nevada Prep Charter School has a very high student-teacher ratio of 52.3 in 2023-2024, much higher than the nearby public middle schools, which range from 22.1 to 31.0 students per teacher. This suggests that the additional funding may not be effectively translated into smaller class sizes or more personalized instruction. Overall, Nevada Prep Charter School appears to be struggling academically, with consistently lower proficiency rates compared to the state and nearby public schools, as well as high chronic absenteeism rates and a high-poverty student population.
