Summary

Galloway Fay Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Henderson, Nevada, serving 453 students in the Clark County School District, a 4-star district that ranks 5th of 12 Nevada districts. In 2025–2026, Galloway Fay ranked 186th of 376 Nevada elementary schools—the 51st percentile—with 3 stars, making it a middle-of-the-pack school statewide. Its math proficiency (40.6%) is above both district (33.8%) and state (36.2%), while reading (43.3%) matches the district average but trails the state (45.2%). Science results for 2025–2026 are suppressed, so current science performance is unknown.

Nearby schools show a sharply divided local landscape. Smalley James E & A Rae Elementary School and McCaw Gordon Elementary School are among Nevada’s top elementary schools, with far higher math and reading proficiency and much lower chronic absenteeism. Taylor Robert L Elementary School and Sewell C T Elementary School are among the lowest performers, and Galloway Fay outperforms them by wide margins. Yet Galloway Fay trails higher-performing neighbors such as Morrow Sue H Elementary School, Dooley John Elementary School, Newton Ulis Elementary School, and Walker J Marlan Int'l School Elementary School in reading, and most of them in math. Grade-level data show 3rd-grade reading (48.4%) and 4th-grade math (48.2%) above district and state, but 5th grade is a clear weak point: math 27.1% and reading 40.0%, both below district and state. Chronic absenteeism rose to 29.1% in 2025–2026, above district and state, after improving the prior year.

Galloway Fay has favorable resources: the lowest student-teacher ratio among nearby schools at 12.9:1 and per-student spending of $17,162 in 2023–2024. However, Smalley and McCaw achieve stronger results with larger classes, and Smalley spends substantially less. This suggests attendance, reading instruction, and upper-elementary achievement may be more direct levers than added staffing or spending alone. Poverty context is similar among same-district peers—100% free/reduced lunch—while charter comparisons like Pinecrest Academy of Nevada Horizon and Signature Preparatory are less directly comparable. Overall, Galloway Fay is a median Nevada school with a math-over-reading profile; its most promising improvement areas are reading, 5th-grade outcomes, and attendance.
