Somerset Academy Sky Pointe Campus

Variety, family environment beautiful campus and centrally located. Great staff and school is growing responsibly

My boys go to Somerset Academy and have for about three years now. They are fantastic! Teachers who actually want to be there, administration that listens, and virtually no bullying problems. We will never go back to CCSD. We love it here!

Don’t waste your time enrolling in Somerset (north Las Vegas) Aliante either. My children attend there and it’s horrible ! The teachers don’t return assignments or test. How are you supposed to know how your child is progressing in school??? Some middle school teacher don’t even teach, they just assign a packet at the being of the semester. Somerset no longer issues report cards. All grades a given though the infinite campus website, which is a JOKE! The website is almost never up to date…

I very much appreciate the Somerset Sky Pointe Campus. The fact that they allow parent involvement is wonderful to me. The ccsd school my daughter attended previously did not allow parent participation. The atmosphere is very positive at Sky Pointe. There is a lottery system that is government mandated for Charter schools. The parents that are the most pro-​active get their kids signed up early, or sign them up at another location so they can get transferred in. The parents are willing to make sacrifices to get their children in the school. If the parents work full time and cannot participate the school has options to earn volunteer hours. Yes its true the front desk person for elementary is not helpful or super friendly, however the teachers & principles are so wonderful ! The teachers are kind loving and very on top of the children’s academic needs. For parents that want a positive caring environment that your children can accelerate in even for AP classes. I highly recommend the school. I am extremely thankful for this school I cannot say enough on its behalf.

The whole Somerset Academy system is very deceptive and unethical in their admissions policy. They will lie to you about your child getting in, due to an incompetent admissions staff, and then do everything they can to not address and cover up for their lie. Yes, their lie is documented in writing.
The front desk can be down right aggressive towards parents of students, the other reviewer is correct.
You had better hope your child doesn’t need extra help after school if they are struggling, because they don’t offer it.

My daughter’s and son have attended Somerset Academy for the past three school years. They went to the North Las Vegas campus and moved over to the Sky Pointe campus when it opened. I have to say, as a parent, it is one of the best decisions I have made. My daughter’s have excelled in all of their classes and maintain a high gpa as freshman in High School. My son’s teacher is amazing. He is in third grade and his teacher has a wealth of experience that is doing wonders for my son. She has taught him to read and write in cursive which belive it or not is now not required in the school district. All in all I am just very grateful my kids have had such a great opportunity to have a great education. All of the staff and faculty have one thing on mind. The best interest of all of the children. The people who have 1 star must have not been able to get in… that would be the only reason I could imagine that would cause them to write a negative review.

My husband and I were referred here by an acquaintance. When we entered the office, we were greeted with the warmth of an iceberg, with the front desk person not wanting to talk to us and telling us we could find all we need to know online on their site. What a first impression.

I have been involved in education in Clark County for 25 years in a variety of capacities. This school is the most well run school that I have every experienced. They are organized, excellent in coordinating communications with students, teachers and parents, and have above all, recruited an OUTSTANDING team of teachers who know how to individualize & inspire learning, and offer students respect and most of all, are able to honor student individuality.
My son came from five years of magnet school, two previous charter schools wherein he was bullied by student and teachers. He was checked out of academics and had low self esteem. After only one semester at this school, he is re-​engaged in his education, oves learning again, is student body Treasurer and is excited about his future career.
I can not say enough about this school and the professionalism, exceptional efficiency and effectiveness offered to students and families in our community.
Bravo to Somerset leadership, faculty and staff!!! After 13 years of parenting, it is a wonderful breath of fresh air!

Scam artists. They don’t let parents post negative comments, they have a straw company handeling their student enrollment lottery so that they can meet the CCSD requirements without actually giving everyone a fair and equal chance to enroll (view their demographics), and they have a parent requirement to volunteer or donate money. Any student that has parent involvement has better test scores because they are aware and on top of issues.
