Summary

Edwards Elbert Elementary School is a public elementary school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 536 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Clark County School District, which is ranked 5 out of 12 in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of a relatively high-performing district, Edwards Elbert Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Nevada elementary schools, maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade. The school's proficiency rates in both mathematics and reading are significantly lower than the Clark County and Nevada state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's overall mathematics proficiency rate was 23.5%, compared to 33% for Clark County and 35.4% for the state. Similarly, the school's overall reading proficiency rate was 35.3%, compared to 43.9% for Clark County and 45.6% for the state.

Interestingly, nearby schools like Keller Charlotte & Jerry Elementary and Mater Bonanza have significantly higher proficiency rates in both mathematics and reading, often exceeding the district and state averages. Additionally, Edwards Elbert Elementary School has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.6% to 31.3% over the past few years, which is notably higher than the chronic absenteeism rates of nearby schools. These findings suggest that the school may face significant challenges in improving student outcomes and that there may be lessons to be learned from the success of nearby charter schools.
