Who it tends to fit

A good match when

  • You live in the Von Tobel attendance zone and want a neighborhood East Las Vegas middle school.

Think twice when

  • Your address is outside the zone and you are relying on open enrollment.
  • You want a full-campus STEM magnet program.

Visit if possible and confirm zoning, current programs, elective availability and capacity before deciding.
