Summary
Goldfarb Daniel Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 598 students in the Clark County School District, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch and nearly every nearby school shares the same high-poverty context. In 2025–26, Goldfarb ranked 181st of 376 Nevada elementary schools — the 52nd percentile with 3 stars — a middle-to-upper-middle statewide position and a strong recovery from the bottom decile in 2020–21, when it sat at the 10th percentile.
Math and reading are now the school's strengths. In 2025–26, Goldfarb's math proficiency was 43.2% (above district 33.8% and state 36.2%) and reading was 47.3% (above district 43.3% and state 45.2%). Among nearby schools, its reading rate is third-highest after Brookman Eileen B Elementary School (56.2%) and Jenkins Earl N Elementary School (51.3%), and its math rate is fourth-highest after Iverson Mervin Elementary School, Jenkins, and Brookman. Science is the clear weak spot at 11.2%, well below district 23.5% and state 25.5%, and the lowest among nearby schools with reported science scores (Iverson 27.0%, Jenkins 19.6%, Stanford Elementary School 14.0%). Chronic absenteeism, meanwhile, has fallen from 42.1% in 2022–23 to 21.6% in 2025–26 — better than both district and state averages.
Resources have shifted too: per-student spending rose from $8,739 in 2020–21 to $14,643 in 2023–24, and the student-teacher ratio improved from 20.4 to 16.1. Grade-level results are uneven — 3rd-grade math (52.1%) and 5th-grade reading (57.1%) are above district and state, while 4th-grade reading (41.6%) and 5th-grade math (33.6%) lag. Compared with Rundle Richard Elementary School, which also enrolls 598 students, Goldfarb ranks higher (52 vs. 32 percentile) with stronger math, reading, and attendance. It still trails Brookman, Iverson, and Jenkins overall, and the oldest subgroup data (2017–18) should be treated as historical only.
