Summary

Newton Ulis Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Henderson, Nevada, enrolling 526 students as part of the Clark County school district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 145th of 376 Nevada elementary schools — the 61st percentile — with a 3-star rating, a decline from the 83rd percentile in 2021–2022. It serves a high-poverty population, with free/reduced lunch reported at 100% across recent years. Per-student spending was $14,821 in 2023–2024, and the student-teacher ratio was 14.2 in 2024–2025, both mid-range among nearby schools.

Math and reading are the school's strengths. In 2025–2026, 46.8% of students were proficient in math and 57.1% in reading, above Clark County (33.8% math, 43.3% reading) and Nevada (36.2% math, 45.2% reading). Third grade is especially strong, at 70.8% in math and 65.2% in reading, far above district and state. Science is the clear weak spot: 14.0%, below both district (23.5%) and state (25.5%), and a sharp drop from 26.8% the year before. Fourth-grade math (39.3%) was the only tested math or reading area below district and state averages.

Compared with nearby schools, Newton Ulis sits in the middle. It trails Smalley James E & A Rae Elementary School, McCaw Gordon Elementary School, Morrow Sue H Elementary School, and charter Pinecrest Academy of Nevada Horizon, is close to Walker J Marlan Int'l School Elementary School, and is well ahead of Galloway Fay Elementary School, Sewell C T Elementary School, and Taylor Robert L Elementary School. Chronic absenteeism was 22.6% in 2025–2026 — better than Clark County's 27.0% and Nevada's 25.5%, though far from McCaw Gordon Elementary School's 8.4% and Smalley James E & A Rae Elementary School's 11.4%. Overall, strong early-grade math and reading plus better-than-average attendance are real strengths; science and 4th grade math are the clearest areas to watch.
