Priority footprint map

Opportunity 180 created the Priority Footprint Maps in an effort to focus our work where there is the greatest need. The map below highlights the Clark County zip codes with the highest concentration of elementary students attending low-performing schools (i.e. schools that received a one- or two-star rating on the Nevada School Performance Framework). Click here to view the maps for Washoe County and all rural Nevada counties

Visit our interactive school quality map to see where the highest- and lowest-performing public schools in Nevada are located. If you are a parent looking to find out how schools in your neighborhood are performing, visit our school performance data portal.
