How Sports Leadership and Management Academy compares with Nevada and U.S. medians
What stands out at Sports Leadership and Management Academy
Sports Leadership and Management Academy is a high-poverty, large charter combined-grade school in Henderson, Nevada, enrolling 1,898 students.
Class loads run heavy: 45.2:1 is larger than about 97% of Nevada schools and 120% above the 20.5:1 state mean, so each teacher carries more students than is typical.
Its free-meal eligibility rate of 96.4% lands close to the Nevada typical range, neither a high- nor low-need campus by this measure.
By headcount it is one of the larger campuses in Nevada, bigger than 94% of state schools at 1,898 students.
Its Resource Investment Index trails 96% of the 733 Nevada schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.
Among 59 similarly sized, similarly resourced-need Nevada schools statewide, it ranks #54, in the lower tier once campus size and economic need are matched.
Its student body is led by Hispanic or Latino (60%) and African American (14%) (diversity index 59/100).
Counselor access is stretched at roughly 633 students per counselor, well above the ASCA-recommended 250:1 ceiling.
Chronic absenteeism is elevated: 33.5% of students missed 10% or more of school days (2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection).
The surrounding State-Sponsored Charter Schools spends $7,800 per pupil, 53% below the Nevada average, a leaner-resourced district than most.
Its district draws 15.7% of revenue from federal sources, an above-typical federal share that tends to track a higher-need student population.
Among Henderson's public schools, it stands alongside Pinecrest Academy of Nevada Cadence (2,370 students): Sports Leadership and Management Academy is smaller than that campus by headcount and runs heavier classes (45.2:1 vs 30.8:1).
State-Sponsored Charter Schools also operates Mater Academy East (2,492 students) and Somerset Academy Losee (2,428 students) alongside Sports Leadership and Management Academy.
