Summary

Gragson Oran K Elementary School is a PK–5 neighborhood school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 539 students in the Clark County school district. It is a high-poverty school, with 100% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in recent years. For 2025–2026, Gragson ranks 320th of 376 Nevada elementary schools — the 15th percentile, or 1 star — placing it in the bottom quarter statewide, while its district ranks 5th of 12 districts at the 58th percentile with 4 stars.

In 2025–2026, 19.4% of Gragson students were proficient in math and 34.0% in reading, both below district and state averages; science results were suppressed by the state. Math is the clearest weakness, with 19.4% the lowest among nearby traditional Clark County elementaries: Moore William K (21.5%), Ronnow C C (21.9%), Edwards Elbert (25.0%) and Cambeiro Arturo (26.0%). Reading is a relative strength — 34.0% tops all four of those schools. By grade, math falls from 26.8% in 3rd grade to 18.0% in 4th and 13.6% in 5th, while reading climbs from 21.6% to 29.1% to 49.4%; that 5th-grade reading figure is only 1.3 points below the district and beats every nearby traditional school.

Attendance is one of the school's strongest trends: chronic absenteeism peaked at 51.3% in 2022–23, well above district and state, then dropped to 22.4% in 2024–25 — better than both — before edging up to 26.3% in 2025–26, still below the district's 27.0%. Per-student spending rose about 55%, from $10,685 in 2020–21 to $16,550 in 2023–24, and the student-teacher ratio improved to 15.8 in 2024–25. Yet nearby charters post much higher proficiency with lower spending and larger classes: Futuro Academy Elementary (53rd percentile) and Mater Bonanza (77th percentile). Gragson shows real progress in upper-grade reading and attendance, but persistent math gaps keep it in the bottom 15% of Nevada elementary schools.
