Summary

Virgin Valley Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Mesquite, Nevada, with an enrollment of 613 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.

Virgin Valley Elementary School consistently outperforms the Clark County and Nevada state averages in both math and reading proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 47.9% of students were proficient or better in math, compared to 33% for Clark County and 35.4% for Nevada. In reading, 49.8% of students were proficient or better, compared to 43.9% for Clark County and 45.6% for Nevada. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 26.6% for the 2024-2025 school year is higher than the state average, which could be an area of focus for the school to address.

The school's performance on different student subgroups varies, with some groups, like male and White students, performing better than their peers statewide, while others, like Hispanic students and English Language Learners, perform closer to the state average. The school has also seen a steady increase in spending per student, from $10,335 in 2018-2019 to $12,739 in 2021-2022, which is higher than the state average. When compared to the nearby Bowler Joseph L Elementary School, which consistently underperforms Virgin Valley Elementary School in both math and reading proficiency, Virgin Valley appears to be providing a higher-quality educational experience for its students.
