Summary

Jydstrup Helen Elementary School is a PK–5 school at 5150 Duneville St in Las Vegas, Nevada, enrolling 563 students as part of Clark County School District, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. Its most recent state ranking is 150th of 376 Nevada schools for 2025–2026 — the 60th percentile with 3 stars. The school has rebounded over time, moving from the 33rd percentile in 2015–2016 and 40th in 2021–2022 to 63rd in 2024–2025 and 60th in 2025–2026.

Math is Jydstrup's clearest strength: 50% proficiency in 2025–2026, well above the district's 33.8% and the state's 36.2%, and essentially tied with nearby Alamo Tony Elementary School (50.1%). Reading has climbed into strength territory at 49.6%, up from 37.5% in 2023–2024, when it fell below district and state averages. Science is the exception — just 12.9% proficient versus the district's 23.5% and the state's 25.5%, and below Gray R Guild Elementary School (20.4%), Diskin P A Elementary School (19.3%), and Alamo Tony (14.1%), though above Dondero Harvey N Elementary School (8.0%). Science has stayed between 12.6% and 13.3% for three years running — a consistent gap rather than a one-year dip.

Attendance has improved sharply, with chronic absenteeism falling from 37.9% in 2022–2023 to 15.9% in 2024–2025 and 21.4% in 2025–2026, still better than the district's 27.0% and the state's 25.5%. Jydstrup spends $14,059 per student and has a 20.8 student-teacher ratio, higher than every same-district nearby school in this comparison, yet its math and reading results beat most of them. Alamo Tony is its closest match, while Wynn Elaine Elementary School spends more with much smaller classes but ranks at the 7th percentile. The clearest next step: sustain the math, reading, and attendance gains while addressing the science gap.

The principal runs these good teachers out with her ridiculous policies. Not to mention she publically humiliated my son by placing a sticker on his chest that read "out of dress code". I feel l I'll keep this score should be worse. Close Quote
