Summary:

Somerset Academy Aliante is a public charter elementary and middle school in North Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 1,188 students from kindergarten through 8th grade. This school stands out as a high-performing institution, consistently outperforming the state and State Sponsored Charter Schools district averages in mathematics, reading, and science proficiency.

In the 2023-2024 school year, 48.4% of Somerset Academy Aliante students were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 45% for the district and 32.6% for the state of Nevada. In reading, 58.9% of students were proficient or better, compared to 54.1% for the district and 41.3% for the state. The school's strong academic performance is further evidenced by its steady improvement in statewide rankings, rising from 142 out of 324 elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 75 out of 377 in 2023-2024.

Interestingly, when compared to the nearby Clark County public schools, Somerset Academy Aliante significantly outperforms them in both mathematics and reading proficiency. For example, the school's 48.4% mathematics proficiency rate in 2023-2024 was more than double the 20.3% rate at the closest nearby public school, Legacy Traditional School North Valley. This suggests that the charter school model and the school's educational approach may be contributing to its academic success.

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.
