  5. #4 Best Public Elementary Schools in Las Vegas AreaDoral Academy Red Rock K-12State-Sponsored Charter Schools, NV•K-12•Rating 3.85 out of 5 33 reviewsJunior: Doral is a good school. During my experience attending this school, I have had access to lots of new opportunities that I would not have had at a standard high school. They offer lots of college and career readiness options as well as ACT prep. One of the best parts of the school is that they allow us to take the ACT for free while also providing us with a free ACT preparatory program. The school is always trying to improve, for example, teachers are constantly giving us surveys on how they can teach better, they invest in subscriptions to programs as help toward our test scores, and teachers are always lenient with their office hours. One of the few things I would criticize are the options of AP and language classes. There is not a very wide variety of AP or language classes. For language specifically, we are only offered Spanish. However, this is very small considering the rest of the school is well run....

Furthermore, I enjoy the programs the school provides for us such as Aviation, Basketball, and AP courses. Also, the staff are very helpful in that they set us up for not only success but a bright future. They also ensure that we are in a safe learning environment so we can grow as people. Students at the school are kind, diverse, and social which gives you a sense of belonging to the school and the community is great.

Teachers seem to care about the students and enjoy teaching. If anything should change about Pinecrest it would be diversity. It would have been nice to have teachers with different ethnic backgrounds. I also think Pinecrest does a lot to make rules that shouldn't apply to high school students- Like not allowing us to have phones during lunch. That's not what life is going to be like when I graduate. Students in high school should be allowed to make the decision as to if they want to socialize on their phones or socialize with peers....
