Schools in Henderson
All Henderson public schools fall within the countywide Clark County School District rather than a separate Henderson-specific district, with real, meaningful quality variance by individual school -- Coronado High School (in the Anthem/MacDonald Ranch area) is Henderson's most consistently top-ranked public high school, ranking 13th in Nevada per U.S. News's 2025 rankings, ahead of Foothill (25th in Nevada) and Green Valley (#33 in Nevada per Niche).

Learn moreA Countywide District, With Real School-to-School Variance
Unlike some metros in this dataset with genuinely separate municipal school districts, all of Henderson (like the rest of the Las Vegas Valley) is served by the single, countywide Clark County School District -- one of the largest school districts in the United States. This means school quality varies by individual school and attendance zone rather than by a Henderson-specific versus non-Henderson-specific district distinction.
Coronado High School: Henderson's Top-Ranked Public High School
Coronado High School, in Henderson's Anthem/MacDonald Ranch area, is the most consistently top-ranked Henderson public high school. U.S. News's 2025 rankings placed it 13th in Nevada (a separately cited figure placed it 9th within the state -- both disclosed rather than reconciled) and #1,593 nationally.
Foothill and Green Valley: Strong, if Somewhat Lower-Ranked, Alternatives
Foothill High School ranks 25th within Nevada. Green Valley High School -- serving the historic Green Valley master-planned community -- ranks #33 among Best Public High Schools in Nevada and #6,293 nationally, per Niche's 2026 rankings. Both remain real, credible options, though genuinely lower-ranked than Coronado.
Confirm the Specific Assigned School for Any Address
Given the real variance across Henderson's high schools (and, by extension, likely across elementary and middle schools within their respective feeder patterns, though this pass did not independently confirm elementary/middle-school-specific rankings), confirming a specific address's actual assigned school -- not just its general Henderson location -- matters meaningfully for families prioritizing top-ranked public schools.
No Independently Confirmed District-Wide Test-Score or Graduation-Rate Figures This Pass
This research pass did not surface comparably confirmed, current district-wide test-score or graduation-rate figures specifically for Clark County School District's Henderson-area schools. This gap is disclosed honestly rather than filled with an invented figure -- the individual-school ranking data above is the more reliably sourced anchor for this file.
