Summary

Sunrise Mountain High School is a public high school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 2,486 students in grades 9-12. Despite being part of the Clark County School District, which is ranked 5th out of 12 districts in Nevada, Sunrise Mountain has consistently performed in the bottom 10% of Nevada high schools over the past several years, maintaining a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school struggles across various student subgroups, ranking in the bottom half or bottom third of Nevada high schools for female, male, African American, Hispanic, and white student performance, as well as for English Language Learners and Special Education students. Sunrise Mountain's proficiency rates on standardized tests are significantly below the state and district averages, with only 7.1% of students proficient or better in the EOC Science Exam, compared to 23.1% statewide and 22.9% in Clark County. Additionally, the school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.6% to 37.1%, which are much higher than the state and district averages.

Interestingly, East Career and Technical Academy High School, located just a few miles away, consistently outperforms Sunrise Mountain on standardized tests and has a higher school ranking. Despite being part of the generally well-ranked Clark County School District, Sunrise Mountain High School has not shown any meaningful improvement in its performance over the past several years, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the root causes of the school's underperformance.
