Summary

Mojave High School is a large public comprehensive high school in North Las Vegas, Nevada, serving grades 9–12 with 2,487 students as part of the Clark County School District.

Academically, Mojave ranks near the bottom of Nevada high schools — 102 of 105 statewide in 2025–2026 (3rd percentile, 0 stars), down from the 10th–19th percentile in earlier years. Test proficiency is very low: ACT English 27.8%, ACT Math under 5%, and End of Course Science 9.2%. Nearby comprehensive high schools also struggle but generally do better in math and science: Canyon Springs High School (7.8% ACT Math, 10.6% EOC Science) and Legacy High School (8.0% math, 17.6% science), while Cheyenne High School ranks higher overall (22nd percentile) even though its ACT English (17.5%) is lower than Mojave's. Selective, magnet, and early-college options such as Northeast Career and Technical Academy High School (74.7% ACT English, 40.1% math) and College of So NV High School East score far higher.

Attendance is a major concern: chronic absenteeism is 50.4% in 2025–2026, roughly double the district (27.0%) and state (25.5%) rates, and higher than Cheyenne (40.3%), Legacy (45.0%), and Canyon Springs (48.9%); only Desert Rose High School (79.3%) is worse nearby. Graduation, however, is a bright spot at 90.8%, above district and state averages. Per-student spending ($11,814) and the student-teacher ratio (23.2) are similar to nearby schools, so resources alone don't explain the outcomes. Recent subgroup effectiveness measures also place male students and low-income students at or near the bottom statewide.
