Summary:
ZIP code 89141 in Las Vegas is served by exactly one high school in this data set: Desert Oasis High School, a Clark County district school serving grades 9–12 with a large enrollment of about 3,300 students. Because it is the only high school in this area, there are no neighboring schools to compare it with directly, so the most useful benchmarks are the district and state averages.
Desert Oasis's strongest signals are completion and college readiness. Its graduation rate is 96.1%, well above the district's 86.6% and the state's 85.4%. In both 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, the school also outperformed Clark County and Nevada in ACT Math and ACT English. However, both ACT subjects slipped year over year — math from 30.4% to 24.5% and English from 56.8% to 53.2% — so its lead narrowed. English remains much stronger than math: 53.2% versus 24.5%, a gap of 28.7 percentage points.
The main challenges are attendance and science. Chronic absenteeism is 32.6%, above the district's 27.0% and the state's 25.5%, which sits uneasily alongside the high graduation rate. The available EOC Science End-of-Course score improved from 18.3% to 22.1% but remains below the district's 27.0% and the state's 26.5%; 9th and 10th grade science results are suppressed by the state, so the full picture is unknown. The latest overall ranking is 56th of 105 Nevada high schools (2 stars), and reported free/reduced lunch eligibility is 100%, with a 25.9:1 student-teacher ratio and $10,013 per-student spending — context worth noting when weighing the school's mixed results.
