Summary

Moore William K Elementary School is a public elementary school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 487 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.

Over the past 10 years, Moore William K Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of Nevada elementary schools, with a 1-star or 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating very low performance. The school's proficiency rates on state assessments in both mathematics and reading are significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rate in mathematics was 19.6%, compared to 35.4% for the state and 33% for the district. The school also has consistently high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 25.6% to 36.3% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state and district averages.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the same district, such as Gragson Oran K Elementary School and Snyder William E Elementary School, also perform poorly, with similar low rankings and proficiency rates. In contrast, the charter schools in the area, such as Mater Bonanza and Futuro Academy Elementary, significantly outperform Moore William K Elementary School and the district averages in both mathematics and reading proficiency. This suggests that the challenges faced by the school may be systemic within the district, and that alternative educational models may be more successful in driving better outcomes for students.
