Summary:
ZIP 89104 has two public high schools serving grades 9–12 in the Clark County district: Global Community High School (188 students) and Central Technical Training Academy (92 students), together enrolling 280 students at the same Maryland Parkway address and both reporting 100% free/reduced lunch.
The two schools have contrasting strengths. Global Community High School reports a 94.3% graduation rate, above the district's 86.6% and the state's 85.4%, plus chronic absenteeism of 19.4%, better than the district's 27.0% and the state's 25.5%. Its test scores, however, are suppressed by the state, so proficiency cannot be compared. Central Technical Training Academy has the lowest chronic absenteeism in the area at 15.6%, 11.4 points below the district and 9.9 points below the state, and spends far more per student — $24,123 versus $7,084 — with a lower student/teacher ratio of 8.3 versus 12.5. But its ACT English proficiency was 35% in 2025–26, below the district (51.2%) and state (50.8%), down from 40% the prior year while district and state improved; its ACT Math score and all Science EOC results are suppressed, and no graduation rate is reported.
Because both schools are small, state suppression of scores is common and year-to-year changes can be volatile, so comparisons should be made cautiously. The clearest picture available is that Global Community High School shows strong graduation and attendance outcomes despite low per-student spending, while Central Technical Training Academy combines very low absenteeism and high resources with lower measured English proficiency and unreported graduation data.
