Summary:
ZIP code 89146 contains 8 schools — 5 elementary and 3 high schools, with no middle or alternative schools — serving 4,548 students (2,371 in elementary and 2,177 in high school), split between six schools in Clark County and two in State Sponsored Charter Schools.
The ZIP spans a very wide performance range. The strongest options are College of So NV High School West, ranked 7 of 105 high schools (93rd percentile, 5 stars) with ACT Math 55.8 and ACT English 80.2; Pinecrest Academy of Nevada Springs, the top elementary at 60 of 376 (84th percentile, 4 stars) with Math 62.7 and Reading 65.5; and Gray R Guild Elementary, the best traditional public elementary (48th percentile, 2 stars) with Math 39.3 and Reading 44.8. Nevada State High School Summerlin has the highest graduation rate at 94.8%. At the other end, Roundy Dr C Owen Elementary (4th percentile, 0 stars) and Wynn Elaine Elementary (7th percentile, 0 stars) rank near the bottom statewide, and Bonanza High School — the largest school, with 1,858 students — has the lowest ACT scores (Math 6.8, English 30.0) and the highest chronic absenteeism at 40.0%, yet a graduation rate of 91.9%, above district and state.
Two patterns matter most for families. First, math is consistently weaker than reading or English at every school where both are reported, with gaps as large as 44.0 points in elementary math and 49.0 points in ACT math between the top and bottom schools. Second, test scores, absenteeism, spending, and graduation do not move together: the lowest-spending high schools outperform Bonanza on ACT, and some schools with high absenteeism still post top scores. Science results are largely suppressed by the state for most schools — that means unavailable, not weak. Several metrics are missing or come from different years, so treat these comparisons as a starting point for school visits rather than a final verdict.
