Summary:

ZIP code 89131 is home to nine schools serving students from elementary through high school — four elementary, two middle, two high, and one alternative K-12 school — with a combined enrollment of 13,884 students split between Clark County and State Sponsored Charter Schools. The schools here are large: high schools average 2,995.5 students, middle schools 1,498, and elementaries 681.25. The charter district is ranked 2 of 12 with 5 stars and an 83rd percentile rating, versus Clark County's 5 of 12, 4 stars, and 58th percentile.

Elementary and K-8 schools lead the ZIP. Ward Kitty McDonough Elementary School is the highest-ranked, at rank 29 of 376, 92nd percentile, 5 stars, with 64.4% math and 73.4% reading proficiency versus district 33.8% and 43.3% and state 36.2% and 45.2%. Coral Academy Centennial Hills follows at 90th percentile, 4 stars, with 64.1% math, 69.0% reading, and a ZIP-best 41.5% science — at the lowest per-student spending, $8,020. Somerset Academy Sky Pointe, a K-12 alternative school of 2,172 students, posts 61.4% math, 68.9% reading, and the top 11th-grade ACT English score, 75.7%. Among high schools, Arbor View High School ranks 33 of 105, 69th percentile, 4 stars, with a 92.9% graduation rate, beating Shadow Ridge High School in ACT and EOC Science. Cadwallader Ralph Middle School leads middle schools at 68th percentile, ahead of Saville Anthony Middle School in every all-grade subject.

Attendance tracks with performance: lowest chronic absenteeism is Coral at 10.7%, Somerset 12.0%, and Ward 13.9%, while Shadow Ridge (32.8%) and Saville (27.9%) exceed district (27.0%) and state (25.5%). Seven of nine schools beat both benchmarks. Science is the most uneven subject — Heckethorn Howard E Elementary School and Rhodes Betsy Elementary School fall below district and state despite solid math and reading. All Clark County schools here report 100% free/reduced lunch, which may reflect district reporting or universal meal designation and is not cleanly comparable to charter rates; suppressed values are unknown, not zero.
