Mission High School

Mission High School, located at 801 Veterans Memorial Drive in Las Vegas, is a specialized educational institution within the Clark County School District. It is notably distinguished as Nevada’s first public recovery high school. The school is specifically designed to provide a safe, supportive, and sober environment for students in grades 9–12 who are in recovery from substance use disorders. By integrating rigorous academic coursework with intensive recovery support services, the school aims to help students maintain their sobriety while successfully completing their high school education.

The culture at Mission High School is built on the principles of community, accountability, and emotional wellness. Students benefit from a smaller, personalized learning environment where they receive mentorship, counseling, and peer support alongside their traditional studies. By removing the social pressures often associated with traditional high schools, Mission High School empowers students to focus on their long-term health and academic success, ultimately preparing them for graduation and post-secondary transitions in an environment that prioritizes their continued recovery.
