Summary

Wilhelm Elizabeth Elementary School is a public elementary school in North Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 503 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Clark County School District, which is ranked 5 out of 12 in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Wilhelm Elizabeth Elementary School has relatively high spending per student, ranging from $10,310 to $13,400 over the past few years, its academic performance has consistently lagged behind state and district averages. The school's proficiency rates in mathematics and reading are below the state averages, and it has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.6% to 31.3% in recent years. When compared to nearby schools in the same district, such as Mackey Jo Elementary School, Wilhelm Elizabeth Elementary generally performs worse on key metrics like test scores and attendance.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 15 to 16.2 students per teacher, it has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Nevada elementary schools over the past several years. This suggests that the school faces significant challenges in addressing the educational needs of its students, who come from a high-poverty community where all of the surrounding schools have 100% of their students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
