Summary:
ZIP code 89101 in Las Vegas contains 21 schools serving 9,730 students across grades K–12: 10 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 9 high schools, and 1 alternative school. Elementary schools outnumber high schools, but high schools enroll about half of all students in the ZIP. Three campuses dominate enrollment — Rancho High School (2,715 students), Las Vegas Academy of the Arts High School (1,743) and Martin Roy W Middle School (1,136) — together roughly 57.5% of all students. Nineteen schools are in Clark County and two in State Sponsored Charter Schools. Many test scores are suppressed by the state and shown as "—"; treat those as unknown, not as zero.
The ZIP is academically divided. Las Vegas Academy is the top-ranked high school here (8th of 105, 5 stars), with ACT English 89.0, ACT Math 45.0 and 20.4% chronic absenteeism. Strong Start Academy is the highest-scoring elementary (28th of 376), with reading 81.9 and math 65.9, though its math slips from 84.7 in 3rd grade to 39.2 in 5th. Bracken Walter Elementary School is the clearest traditional neighborhood standout: math 54.0, reading 60.5 and the lowest absenteeism in the ZIP at 8.4%. Rancho, the largest school, has a strong 91.6% graduation rate but lower proficiency and 38.3% absenteeism.
Most other Clark elementary schools score below district and state benchmarks. Lunt Robert Elementary School is lowest in math (13.9) and reading (20.1), while Sunrise Acres Elementary School posts 19.1 in both with 40.0% absenteeism. Martin Roy, the only middle school, ranks 128th of 148 with math 12.4 and reading 24.1. Absenteeism swings from 8.4% at Bracken to 74.0% at Mission High School. Small programs such as Quest Program enroll 9 to 113 students, often have suppressed scores, and should not be judged alongside comprehensive schools. Higher spending alone does not track with higher outcomes here.
