An overview of Las Vegas public schools
The federal directory lists 307 public schools in Las Vegas, NV: 195 elementary, 41 middle, 60 high, 11 combined or other. The 301 schools that reported 2024–25 membership enrolled 245,533 students, an average of 816 per school.

Clark County operates the most schools here (257), plus 1 charter, service, or other agency. City names come from school mailing addresses, which often differ from district or municipal boundaries.
Across schools that reported staffing, the median student–teacher ratio is 17.6:1, similar to the statewide school median of 17.6:1. A ratio counts classroom-teacher FTE against total enrollment, so specialized programs and part-time staffing can move it; ask schools for actual class sizes by grade.
School choice options include 50 charter schools, 32 magnet schools, 4 virtual schools. Application windows and lotteries usually open months before the school year.
Among 60 high and combined schools with 2021–22 civil-rights data, 40 reported students enrolled in AP courses and 52 of 65 reported computer-science classes. Confirm current course catalogs directly with each school.
About 94% of students in reporting schools were eligible for free or reduced-price meals in 2024–25. This describes the community served; it is not a quality signal, and community-eligibility schools can report differently.
