Summary:
The 89128 zip code area of Las Vegas, Nevada is home to 5 schools, including 4 elementary schools and 1 high school. The data reveals a mix of academic performance, with some standout schools like Doral Academy Fire Mesa, a public charter elementary/middle school that ranks in the top 25% of Nevada elementary schools, and Bryan Richard H Elementary, a public elementary school that ranks in the top 35% of Nevada elementary schools. However, other schools in the area, such as Katz Edythe & Lloyd Elementary and McMillan James B Elementary, lag behind with only 23-40% of students proficient in math and reading.
The high-performing Doral Academy Fire Mesa stands out with its strong academic results despite serving a student population with a relatively lower percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients compared to the Clark County district's traditional public schools. In contrast, the two lowest-performing elementary schools have 100% of their students qualifying for free/reduced lunch, suggesting a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement. The high school, Cimarron-Memorial High School, also lags behind the state and district averages in test scores and graduation rates.
Overall, the data highlights the diversity of school performance within the 89128 zip code area, with the charter school and two higher-performing elementary schools standing out. The findings suggest that factors such as school type, resource allocation, and student demographics may play a role in shaping academic outcomes in this area.
