Walter Johnson Junior High School

Walter Johnson Junior High School in Las Vegas serves students in grades 6 through 8, ages 11 to 14, at 7701 Ducharme Ave, zip code 89145. As a public junior high school, its after school program listing covers an extensive set of clubs and teams rather than a single activity: academic tutoring, homework assistance, a robotics club, debate team, chess club, student council, NJHS, GSA, art club, band, choir, and orchestra, along with Spanish language, computer literacy, and yearbook electives.

Athletics are also part of the offering, with basketball, flag football, soccer, volleyball, and track and field teams listed. The campus itself includes classrooms, sports fields, a gymnasium, library, computer labs, an art room, and music rooms, which supports the range of clubs and electives on the list.

The school follows a school year calendar rather than running year round, with hours Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and closed on weekends. It is free to attend, consistent with its status as a public school. Special needs accommodations are listed for special education support, learning disability support, gifted programs, ADHD support, and emotional and behavioral support, so families of kids with a range of needs have named support categories to ask about.

For a family evaluating school options or looking specifically at what after school clubs and sports are available to a middle schooler in this zip code, this listing gives a fuller picture than most, though it does not include enrollment boundaries, so families should confirm enrollment eligibility directly. The sheer number of clubs listed, spanning academics, arts, and athletics, suggests a student here has room to try more than one activity across a school year rather than committing to a single track.

For more information, call (702) 799-4480 or visit johnsonjhs.org. Families should also ask directly which clubs and teams run during the regular 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. school day versus which meet after that window closes, since this listing does not separate in school activities from true after school commitments.
