Summary

Culley Paul E Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Las Vegas, NV (89108) enrolling 583 students in the Clark County School District, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Its statewide standing has slipped: Culley Paul E Elementary School ranked 343rd of 376 Nevada elementary schools in 2025–2026 (9th percentile, 0 stars), down from the 34th percentile and 2 stars in 2022–2023. Proficiency is below district and state averages — 22.6% in math and 28.0% in reading in 2025–2026. Among 10 nearby PK–5 schools, Culley is third-lowest in both subjects: it tops only Reed Doris M Elementary School and Katz Edythe & Lloyd Elementary School in math, and only Ronzone Bertha Elementary School and Red Rock Elementary School in reading. Adcock O K Elementary School, serving a similarly high-poverty population, posts 36.8% in math and 44.9% in reading.

Third grade reading (21.0%) and fifth grade math (13.6%) are the weakest areas, well below district and state. Fourth grade is a bright spot — 30.5% in math and 31.5% in reading, second-highest and mid-to-upper locally. Science was 9.8% in 2024–2025, the lowest among nearby schools reporting that year; the 2025–2026 science figure is suppressed, so it is unknown rather than zero. Chronic absenteeism improved from 44.7% in 2021–2022 to 28.9% in 2025–2026, still above district and state, though Adcock has nearly the same absenteeism rate with much stronger results.

Resources have grown: spending reached $16,037 per student in 2023–2024, mid-range locally, and the student-teacher ratio improved to 16.1 in 2024–2025 — better than Warren Rose Elementary School, Katz, McWilliams J T Elementary School and Red Rock, but less favorable than Reed, Hancock Doris Elementary School, Pittman Vail Elementary School and Adcock. Results have not followed yet, and nearby schools show no simple resource rule: Red Rock spends $19,045 with low reading, while Fong Wing and Lilly Elementary School spends $14,642 and reads higher than Culley.

Thursday, September 1, 2022

Terrible school. The 'educational' capacity is an absolute joke. The children are all incredibly rude and disrespectful, to both other students and staff. They do absolutely nothing about bullying. There is nothing good to say about this school. If you have ANY other options, do NOT send your child here. Close Quote
