GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My experience with Advanced Technologies Academy has been both rewarding and challenging. What I liked best about A-TECH has been the academic rigor, advanced facilities, and the college and career preparation.

A-tech is a great place for students looking to push themselves and surround themselves in a competitive academic environment. There are a variety of clubs to enroll in. Clark County lunch food is unpleasant. I wish to see the addition of sports for students to not only be academically successful, but also physically active. Especially since most students aren't physically active.

Advanced Technologies Academy (A-tech) is a magnet school that prepares me for college. A-tech encourages me to push myself to high limits because of their abundant workload. The best part of my experience at A-tech is the resources they provide. Teachers stay after school and sacrifice time to help me with assignments when they notice I struggle. When I don't do well on a test, they allow me to complete an extra credit assignment to receive the points back. The worst part of my experience is the dismissal. We get out one hour later than other schools. When I stay after school, I get home late at 6:00 pm due to riding the late school bus and getting picked up. A change I want to see is the dismissal time being earlier in the day.

I am a parent of A-Tech alum and looked up how school is planing to do Fall 2020 semester. It left me feeling nostalgic and happy for current kids there. Everything is organized, well prepared and focused on providing genuine education in a nice environment. Thank you A- Tech for being so amazing.

A-TECH is ranked #1 in NV for a reason. It truly lives up to the expectations of a top school and I am glad I chose it for my son.

I like this school because of the variety of kids in this school is amazing and how easy it is to make friends is so much fun. I also like the teachers, they're very cooperative and they're good at their job.

ATech is great for academics, however, there is no social scene. Zero. The kids are either so smart, all they care about is academics, or so wierd they can’t even hold a conversation.
