While a few schools stand out, such as Tony Serna Junior Elementary, which has the highest statewide ranking and proficiency rates among the elementary schools, and West Las Vegas High School, which has the highest statewide ranking and proficiency rates among the high schools, the majority of the schools in the 87701 zip code area are struggling academically.

The high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, mostly 100%, suggest that the schools serve a predominantly low-income student population, which may contribute to the academic challenges.
