Summary

Moapa Valley High School is a public high school serving grades 9–12 with 568 students in Overton, Nevada, a rural community in the Clark County School District where no other schools lie within 20 miles, so the comparisons below use the district and state as the available benchmarks.

The school has generally performed above the state median, though its latest statewide rank slipped to 43rd of 105 — the 59th percentile, with 3 stars — in 2025–2026, after sitting in the mid-70s percentile for the three prior years. Its outcome measures look stronger than that rank suggests. The 2024–2025 graduation rate was 93.0%, well above Clark County's 86.6% and Nevada's 85.4%. In 2025–2026, ACT English proficiency was 62.5% (11.7 points above the state) and ACT Math was 27.9% (above both district and state), even though math dropped from the school's recent high of 39.7% in 2024–2025. The school's effectiveness rank for low-income students was 70th percentile with 4 stars in 2025–2026 — a notable signal given that 100% of students were reported as eligible for free/reduced lunch in recent years.

Chronic absenteeism is the clearest challenge: 29.1% in 2025–2026, above Clark County's 27.0% and Nevada's 25.5%, though it has fallen sharply from 50.8% in 2021–2022. Subgroup effectiveness rankings also softened in the latest year, and the state suppressed the 9th- and 10th-grade science scores for 2025–2026, so those results are unknown rather than a weakness. Per-student spending rose to $17,812 in 2023–2024 and the student-teacher ratio improved to 18.9 in 2024–2025, though no district or state comparators were provided for either figure.
