ACT Score for high school juniors

Our residents consistently rank education as a top community priority, and the City of Henderson has responded by actively supporting student achievement at our local schools. Since 2015, the City has provided over $3.4 million to public schools in our community for items that improve and preserve educational facilities, increase technology resources and pre-kindergarten skills assessments as well as provide for enhanced curriculum, learning specialist positions, and special education assistants. The City also actively partners with community representatives and nonprofit organizations to further educational outcomes and is committed to sustaining involvement in our children’s education.
