Summary

Guinn Kenny C Middle School is a Clark County public middle school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving grades 6–8 with 1,069 students as part of the Clark County School District. In 2025–2026 it ranked 57th of 148 Nevada middle schools — the 61st percentile with 3 stars. That is the school's best showing since 2018–2019, and it continues an upward trend from the 49th percentile in 2022–2023.

Academically, Guinn scored above both its district and the state in all three tested subjects in 2025–2026: mathematics (37.9 vs. 33.8 district and 36.2 state), reading (46.7 vs. 43.3 and 45.2), and science (38.8 vs. 23.5 and 25.5). Science is the clear standout, and math has improved from below district and state levels in 2022–2023 to above both. Compared with nearby schools, Guinn sits in the upper-middle tier: Hyde Park Middle School (72nd percentile) and Fertitta Victoria Middle School (64th) rank higher, while Faiss Wilbur & Theresa Middle School (61st) and Canarelli Lawrence & Heidi Middle School (60th) are close behind. Guinn is ahead of most others in the group, including Johnson Walter Junior High School Academy of Int'l Studies, Gibson Robert O Middle School Leadership Academy, and several more.

Chronic absenteeism is 19.2%, better than the district's 27.0% and the state's 25.5%, and lower than most nearby schools. The student-teacher ratio of 17.8 in 2024–2025 is the lowest among the comparison schools. Per-pupil spending is $13,615 — mid-to-high locally, but several nearby schools spend more and get less, suggesting factors beyond funding matter. Historical subgroup data from 2017–2018 shows strong results for low-income students, English language learners, and special education students, though those figures are dated and do not reflect current performance.
