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.

Las Vegas High school is a great school with passionate administrators, teachers, and students. They work really well balancing sports while balancing academics at the same time, they have great school spirit and it's a good community to be in.

The teachers are all top quality, with most having an incredible grasp on the work they teach, and having great ways to teach said skills to students. Administration can be a little curt about really small things, though.

Las Vegas High School was very welcoming and fun to attend. You feel the school spirit during the pep rally's and football games. The teachers and classes are really chill. You can make friends easy by getting involved in any after school activities.
