Depends on the school. I know that University of Las Vegas has a great culinary school which produces a number of great chefs in the area. (Guy Fieri on the food network went to school there.) The culinary school at Sante Fe CC college is also an excellent school. I haven't gone to either, but I"ve taken classes thru them as a recreational cook. But I've looked into them for other reasons.
