Summary

Moore William K Elementary School is a PK–5 neighborhood school at 491 N Lamb Blvd in eastern Las Vegas (89110), serving 497 students — the smallest traditional public elementary in its immediate area — with 100% free/reduced lunch eligibility. It belongs to Clark County, a mid-tier district ranked 5th of 12 in Nevada. Statewide, though, the school has sat in the bottom fifth of Nevada elementaries for a decade: in 2025–26 it ranked 359th of 376 (5th percentile, 0 stars), and it has never climbed above the 18th percentile, reached in 2023–24.

Reading is its clearest academic weakness. About 21% of students met the reading standard (21.1%) versus about 22% in math (21.5%) — math is roughly mid-pack among nearby schools, but reading is second-lowest. Neighboring Gragson Oran K Elementary School (34.0%) and Edwards Elbert Elementary School (32.1%) post notably higher reading scores despite serving similar students and spending less per pupil, and Snyder William E Elementary School (30.0%) also outperforms; only Earl Ira J Elementary School scores lower. Within Moore, reading climbs by grade — 14.7% in 3rd grade to 31.2% in 5th — making 5th grade its strongest group. Two nearby charters, Mater Bonanza and Futuro Academy Elementary, post much higher proficiency, though funding streams and grade spans differ, so those comparisons are approximate.

Two operational facts stand out. Attendance has improved sharply: chronic absenteeism fell from 46.8% in 2021–22 to 26.6%, now in line with district (27.0%) and state (25.5%) norms — but achievement has not yet followed. Meanwhile Moore spends the most per student in its peer group, $16,817 in 2023–24 (up roughly 37% over three years), while proficiency and state ranking stayed flat or slipped. Class sizes are looser than before at 16.5 students per teacher, down from 24.3 the prior year. Science results are state-suppressed, so they should be treated as unknown rather than as poor performance.
