With about 6 teachers, College of So. NV HS West has a student/teacher ratio of about 36:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The College of Southern Nevada (CSN) High School West is a specialized dual-enrollment high school program located on the Charleston campus of the College of Southern Nevada in Las Vegas. Unlike a traditional high school, this institution operates as a public charter school designed for juniors and seniors who are looking to jumpstart their college education. Students attending the school have the unique opportunity to take college-level courses that simultaneously satisfy high school graduation requirements and earn credits toward an associate degree or a vocational certificate, often at little to no cost for tuition.

The school is best suited for self-motivated, academically focused students who are ready to transition into a college environment before graduating high school. By immersing themselves in the campus culture of CSN, students gain early exposure to higher education expectations, utilize college facilities like libraries and labs, and work toward their future career goals with a significant head start. Because the program requires a high level of personal responsibility and maturity, it serves as a bridge between secondary education and the professional or university world.
