Summary

Hinman Edna F Elementary School is a small PK–5 school in Henderson, Nevada, serving 363 students as part of the Clark County school district. In 2025–2026 it ranked 336th of 376 Nevada elementary schools — the 11th percentile, with 1 star — placing it near the bottom of the state. This is not a one-year dip. The school was at the 60th percentile in 2013–2014, the 52nd in 2015–2016, and the 32nd in 2017–2018, and has mostly stayed in the bottom third since 2018–2019. It briefly rose to the 28th percentile in 2024–2025 before falling back to 11th.

Test results are well below both district and state averages. In 2025–2026, 19.8% of students were proficient in math, versus 33.8% districtwide and 36.2% statewide, and 25.4% were proficient in reading, versus 43.3% districtwide and 45.2% statewide — a gap of about 14 points in math and 18 points in reading compared with the district. Science scores are suppressed, meaning they are unknown here, not zero. Third-grade math (39.4%) is a relative bright spot, much closer to district and state benchmarks, but 4th-grade reading (22.4%) and 5th-grade reading (24.3%) are far below. Chronic absenteeism is 31.2%, above the district's 27.0% and the state's 25.5%.

What stands out is that resources are relatively strong while outcomes are not. Hinman Edna F Elementary School has the lowest student-teacher ratio (12.9) among nearby schools and the second-highest per-student spending ($20,125 in 2023–2024), behind only Taylor Robert L Elementary School. Yet comparable nearby schools with 100% free/reduced lunch do far better: McCaw Gordon Elementary School is a top-10 school statewide (97th percentile), followed by Stevens Josh Elementary School (77th), Brown Hannah Marie Elementary School (68th), and Kesterson Lorna J Elementary School (55th). Sewell C T Elementary School (15th percentile) performs similarly to Hinman. This suggests funding and class size alone have not been enough, and that attendance and reading instruction — especially in grades 4 and 5 — are the most direct levers for improvement. Historical subgroup effectiveness data dates from 2017–2018 and should be treated as context rather than current performance.
