Summary

Sunrise Acres Elementary School is a PK–5 neighborhood school at 211 28th Street in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 496 students in the Clark County School District, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. In 2025–26, Sunrise Acres Elementary School ranked 361st of 376 Nevada elementary schools — the 4th percentile, with 0 stars — while Clark County as a whole sits at the 58th percentile with 4 stars.

Achievement is well below district and state levels. In 2025–26, 19.1% of students were proficient in math and 19.1% in reading, compared with 33.8% and 43.3% in the district and 36.2% and 45.2% statewide; science results were suppressed for that year. The reading gap is the largest of the two. Chronic absenteeism is a serious concern: 40.0% of students were chronically absent in 2025–26 — roughly 2 in 5 — versus 27.0% in the district and 25.5% statewide. The school's standing has also declined sharply, from the 41st percentile in 2021–22 to the 8th percentile or lower in each of the next four years.

Compared with nearby schools, Sunrise Acres faces steeper obstacles. Its 40.0% chronic absenteeism rate is higher than at every nearby standard elementary school, including Hollingsworth Howard Elementary School (26.5%), Cambeiro Arturo Elementary School (25.8%), Hewetson Halle Elementary School (22.3%), Lunt Robert Elementary School (29.0%), and Dearing Laura Elementary School (36.1%). Crestwood Elementary School, about a mile away, enrolls a similar number of students (551), spends a similar amount per student, and also reports 100% free/reduced lunch, yet posts much higher proficiency (41.1% math, 41.5% reading) and far lower absenteeism (14.6%). Per-student spending at Sunrise Acres rose 56% from 2020–21 to 2023–24, and the student-teacher ratio improved to 15.5, but results have not followed. Parents may want to ask about attendance supports and early reading interventions; older data from 2017–18 suggests the school was once notably effective with English Language Learner students.
