Summary

Ober D’Vorre & Hal Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Las Vegas’s 89135 area, serving 536 students in the Clark County school district. It is currently rated 3 stars, ranked 189th of 376 Nevada schools—the 50th percentile—in 2025–2026. That is a partial rebound from 2024–2025, when it fell to 2 stars and the 36th percentile, but it is far below its 2015–2016 peak as a 5-star, 93rd-percentile school. The district overall is rated above average at 4 stars. For families, this is a once-strong school that now sits squarely in the middle of the state.

In 2025–2026, Ober D’Vorre & Hal’s all-grade math proficiency was 38.5%, above district (33.8%) and state (36.2%) averages. Reading was 45.3%, above the district’s 43.3% and essentially equal to the state’s 45.2%. Science for 2025–2026 was suppressed by the state, so it is unknown; in prior years, science was consistently below district and state, including 14.8% in 2024–2025. The school average hides a grade-level split: 5th grade was a clear strength (44.1% math, 64.7% reading, both above district and state), while 3rd grade reading was 31.7% and 4th grade math was 33.3%, both below district and state. Compared with nearby same-district schools, math was stronger than Derfelt, Christensen, and Bendorf, but lower than Bryan, Abston, Givens, Goolsby, Hayes, and Piggott. Reading trailed almost all of them, with only Bendorf scoring lower.

The clearest local red flag is chronic absenteeism: 34.7% in 2025–2026, above district (27.0%) and state (25.5%) and the highest among nearby schools in the data, while top nearby schools are in the 7%–16% range. Resources look favorable—per-student spending rose to $14,328 by 2023–2024, and the student-teacher ratio improved to 14.4 in 2024–2025, better than most nearby same-district schools. Yet nearby high performers such as Goolsby and Givens achieve much higher proficiency while spending less. For parents, Ober D’Vorre & Hal offers a strong 5th-grade cohort and above-state math, but it currently faces significant attendance, reading, and science challenges compared with nearby options.

What people are saying

I have two daughters who are currently enrolled at Ober and have been enrolled since kindergarten. Comparing notes with other fathers who's children attend different schools, both public and private in Las Vegas, as well as based on my own observation Ober represents one of the finest elementary schools available in southern Nevada.

The staff from the principal down to the teaching assistants are professional, strict with the kids but fun and communicate well with the parents. A significant difference from other schools, based on my observation, is the emphasis on values and manners the school holds nearly as high as the focus on education. Good manners, treating others with respect, fairness and compassion are fundamentals that are taught along with reading, math, science and art. The attitude of the students and test scores are evident on the focus of learning and the school values.

Test scores are one measure of a great school, but what makes a great school a cut above or an excellent school are the results. My children are not only being taught to read, write and think they are being taught how to be honest, respectful, hard working and most importantly good people.

It truly is more of a testament to the principal and her staff that the mix of education and core values are imparted as well as they are. Our girls are better people for having attended Ober elementary. That is a high standard to continuously meet and which Ober has met each year we have attended.

Parents are highly engaged at Ober which again shows investment from the staff beyond the classroom. The PTO is very active in making sure Ober's students are well funded and highly engaged in the class room and beyond. A testament once again to a strong staff and another feather the cap of the principal and her vision of what a excellent education experience should be.

Many other schools are a result of mediocre staff rising to the top. My experience at Ober has has been that excellence is expected and delivered in all departments. The teachers at Ober, in my opinion, are above par in nearly every department. That excellence trickels down every day to its students. My kids look forward to going to school not solely to socialize but because they are engaged in learning. Ober elementary has had a large influence on our daughters and has begun the process of a lifetime of learning in the right way.

In summary Ober is an excellent school, above par when compared to other schools in the area and state, and comes with this parents highest recommendation. Close Quote

My daughter is in 5th grade and she absolutely loves it! Excellent teachers, staff and Principal and Assistant Principal. They always greet kids with smile. Some of the fun learning activities/program to mention: Sight Words Soldiers, Multiplication Football, Division Baseball, Living Museum, Grade Nevadan, Great American, Enrichment Class, GATE, Multicultural Festival. Exceptional Choir Program. Great PTO. They hosts Sweetheart Dance, Family Fun Night and other numerous events. She will miss Ober! Close Quote
