There are several challenges threating the validity of performance measures of Beacon Academy of Nevada. Higher levels of credit deficiency, transfers, and prior enrollments, alter the accuracy of the graduation rate in correctly interpreting Beacon Academy of Nevada as fostering academic achievement among at-risk students. Coupled with inadequate comparison school measures, Beacon Academy of Nevada is incorrectly described. In this report, the challenges faced by Beacon Academy are described in order to aid the reader of how well Beacon Academy is working to serve at-risk students despite challenging conditions.
