Newton Ulis Elementary consistently outperforms the Clark County and Nevada state averages in both math and reading proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, 56.3% of students were proficient or better in SBAC Reading, compared to 43.9% in Clark County and 45.6% statewide.

When comparing Newton Ulis to other nearby elementary schools in the same district, such as Taylor Robert L Elementary and Sewell C T Elementary, Newton Ulis stands out as a higher-performing school with significantly better test scores and rankings. However, the school faces challenges common to schools with high percentages of low-income students, such as addressing the needs of specific student subgroups and reducing chronic absenteeism, which could be areas of focus for continued improvement.
