Summary

Hancock Doris Elementary School is a PK–5 neighborhood school in Las Vegas serving 420 students in the Clark County School District, where every student qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch. In 2025–2026 it ranked 286th of 376 Nevada elementary schools (24th percentile, 1 star) — the highest percentile in its past decade, but still in the bottom quarter statewide.

Academically, 24.3% of students were proficient in math and 37.3% in reading, below district (33.8% and 43.3%) and state (36.2% and 45.2%) averages; science results were suppressed by the state, so they are unknown. Reading has improved steadily, from 23.6% in 2022–2023 to 37.3%, shrinking the gap to the state from 17.4 points to 7.9 points, while math has stayed nearly flat. Third-grade reading (41.2%) is close to district and state levels, but fourth-grade reading (30.0%) and math (20.0%) are the biggest weak spots. Compared with nearby schools, Hancock Doris outperforms Griffith E W Elementary School, McWilliams J T Elementary School, Red Rock Elementary School, Culley Paul E Elementary School, and Detwiler Ollie Elementary School, but trails Hoggard Mabel Elementary School (57.3% reading), Wasden Howard Elementary School, and Twin Lakes Elementary School.

Chronic absenteeism is the standout challenge: 31.5% in 2025–2026, above district (27.0%) and state (25.5%) rates and the highest among nearby Clark County schools, although it has improved markedly from 46.5% in 2021–2022. The school also has real advantages — a student–teacher ratio of 12.3 (the lowest nearby) and per-student spending of $17,446 (the second-highest nearby) — yet its results still lag those of Hoggard Mabel Elementary School, which spends about the same amount with much larger classes. The nearby charter, Sage Collegiate Public Charter School, posted lower scores (20.7% math, 30.7% reading) and slightly higher absenteeism, though it serves grades K–8, so its results are not directly comparable.
