Summary
Diskin P A Elementary School is a PK–5 public school in Las Vegas, NV, serving 505 students in the Clark County district, with a 100% free/reduced-lunch rate in 2024–25 and a 13.6 student-teacher ratio in 2024–25. In 2025–26, its overall state rank was 216 of 376 (43rd percentile, 2 stars), down from 184 of 379 (51st percentile, 3 stars) in 2024–25 and 174 of 377 (54th percentile, 3 stars) in 2023–24. It remains far above its 2020–21 low (283 of 324, 13th percentile, 1 star), but the recent dip is worth monitoring.
Academically, math is the bright spot: All Grades math proficiency is 36.8%, above the district (33.8%) and state (36.2%). Reading is 41.3%, below the district (43.3%) and state (45.2%), and science is 19.3%, below the district (23.5%) and state (25.5%). Grade-level results are unusually uneven: 3rd-grade math and reading are far below district and state, 4th-grade math and reading are above them, and 5th-grade math and science are above district/state while 5th-grade reading is well below. Nearby, Bryan Roger M Elementary School (49.8% math), Jydstrup Helen Elementary School (50.0%), Kim Frank Elementary School (42.2%), Decker C H Elementary School (41.0%), and Gray R Guild Elementary School (39.3%) all have higher math proficiency; the school’s reading is below most nearby Clark schools.
Chronic absenteeism improved from 38.5% in 2021–22 to 17.2% in 2024–25, then rose to 23.0% in 2025–26—still below district (27.0%) and state (25.5%), though mid-pack nearby. Resources are relatively favorable: per-student spending was $17,672 in 2023–24, and the 13.6 student-teacher ratio is lower than most nearby schools except Gray R Guild Elementary School (12.1) and Decker C H Elementary School (13.1). Historical 2017–18 subgroup ranks showed strong results for low-income (85th percentile) and English-language-learner (82nd percentile) students, with special education at the 46th percentile, but that data is dated. The main action areas are 3rd-grade foundations, 5th-grade reading, and science, while preserving 4th-grade and math strengths.
