Summary

Silvestri Charles Junior High School is a public middle school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 1,144 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Clark County School District, which is ranked 5 out of 12 in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, Silvestri Charles Junior High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past several years, dropping from 30th out of 117 Nevada middle schools in 2013-2014 to its current ranking of 103rd out of 151 in 2024-2025.

The school consistently underperforms compared to the Clark County and Nevada averages on standardized tests, with proficiency rates in SBAC Mathematics (18.6%) and SBAC Reading (38.5%) significantly lower than the district (33% and 43.9%) and state (35.4% and 45.6%) averages. Silvestri Charles Junior High School also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching as high as 31.3% in 2023-2024, which is significantly above the state average. While the school ranks highly for some student subgroups, such as African American students and English Language Learners, it struggles with others, like Asian students and students with special needs.

Interestingly, Silvestri Charles Junior High School's performance is significantly lower than many of the nearby middle schools in the Clark County School District, such as Gunderson Barry and June Middle School, Canarelli Lawrence & Heidi Middle School, and Webb Del E Middle School, which all outperform Silvestri Charles on academic measures and have higher statewide rankings. The high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism at Silvestri Charles Junior High School may be contributing to the school's academic struggles, and addressing these issues could present opportunities for improvement.
