Summary:
The 89139 zip code area in Nevada is home to 5 schools, including 4 elementary schools and 1 middle school. The standout school in this area is Doral Academy West Pebble, a public charter elementary/middle school that significantly outperforms state and district averages on math and reading proficiency across all grade levels. This school is ranked 27th out of 379 Nevada elementary schools and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger, while spending less per student than the other public schools in the area.
The other standout school is Canarelli Lawrence & Heidi Middle School, which has strong performance compared to state and district averages, especially in reading proficiency. Across the 5 schools, math proficiency rates range from 40.5% to 60.5%, and reading proficiency rates range from 45.4% to 71%, both outperforming the state averages. However, science proficiency is generally lower, ranging from 19% to 55.4%.
Interestingly, the high-poverty student populations at the elementary schools (100% free/reduced lunch) do not necessarily translate to poor academic performance, as Mathis Dr. Beverly S Elementary and Alamo Tony Elementary both have math and reading proficiency rates above the state average. This suggests that factors beyond just student demographics can contribute to strong academic outcomes in this area.
