Somerset Academy Losee

Summary:

Somerset Academy Losee is a public charter school in North Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 2,451 students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The school is part of the State Sponsored Charter Schools district, which is ranked 2nd out of 13 districts in Nevada and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Somerset Academy Losee has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (52.88%) and African American (21.22%) students compared to the state average, the school's academic performance has been consistently lower than the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the school's overall proficiency rate in SBAC Mathematics was 25.8%, compared to the state average of 32.6% and the Clark County district average of 45%. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 39.43% in 2020-2021 to 45.29% in 2022-2023.

When compared to other nearby charter schools, such as Coral Academy Cadence, Somerset Academy Sky Pointe, and Founders Academy of Las Vegas, Somerset Academy Losee generally performs worse on standardized tests, particularly in mathematics. These nearby charter schools have significantly higher proficiency rates in both mathematics and reading. However, compared to traditional public schools in the Clark County district, such as Miller John F and Stewart Helen J, Somerset Academy Losee performs better on standardized tests, though these traditional public schools serve a smaller number of students and have much lower student-teacher ratios.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
