Summary

Pittman Vail Elementary School is a public elementary school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 481 students. 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 the school's relatively high spending per student, ranging from $10,750 to $13,377 over the past few years, Pittman Vail Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages in SBAC assessments for Mathematics, Reading, and Science. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 26.6% in Mathematics, 30.5% in Reading, and 13.8% in Science, compared to the district averages of 33%, 43.9%, and 25%, respectively. Additionally, the school has persistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.6% to 31.3% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages.

When comparing Pittman Vail Elementary School to the nearby Adcock O.K. Elementary School, which is less than a mile away, it becomes evident that the school is underperforming academically, with Adcock O.K. consistently outperforming Pittman Vail in SBAC assessments by 10-20 percentage points. Despite these challenges, the school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage, and the strong performance of certain student subgroups, such as English Language Learners, suggest that there may be potential for improvement with the right strategies and interventions.
