Summary

Eldorado High School is a public magnet high school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 2,046 students in grades 9-12. It is part of the Clark County School District, which is ranked 5th out of 12 districts in Nevada and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eldorado High School has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Nevada high schools, with its performance on standardized tests significantly below the state and district averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 10.1% of Eldorado students were proficient or better in ACT/Mathematics, compared to 21% statewide and 20.7% in Clark County. The school's 4-year graduation rate is also slightly below the state and district averages, ranging from 81-86% in recent years. Additionally, Eldorado High School has a very high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 25.6% to 43.1%, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages.

The extremely high percentage of low-income students at Eldorado High School, with 99.95% to 100% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, raises concerns about educational equity and the school's ability to provide a high-quality education to its student population. Compared to nearby high schools in Clark County, such as Las Vegas High School and Sunrise Mountain High School, Eldorado's performance is generally worse, despite serving similar low-income student populations.
