Summary:
The 89102 zip code area in Nevada is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Clark County School District. While the schools serve a diverse student population, they face significant socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, and generally underperform on standardized tests compared to district and state averages.
The standout school in the area is Clark Educational W High School, which has the largest student population and notably higher performance on the ACT Mathematics exam than the district and state. In contrast, Vegas Verdes Elementary School has the highest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients and the lowest student-teacher ratio, but its academic performance is significantly below the district and state averages. The Bell Rex Elementary School has the second-highest percentage of African American students and the lowest statewide ranking, with test scores well below the district and state.
Overall, the schools in the 89102 zip code face significant challenges, including socioeconomic factors and resource allocation disparities, which may contribute to their consistently low statewide rankings and test scores. However, the data also highlights the need to consider contextual factors beyond just test scores and rankings when evaluating school performance, and the potential for targeted interventions and support to address the educational needs of this community.
