Summary

Leavitt Justice Myron E Middle School is a Clark County middle school in Las Vegas, NV, serving grades 6–8 with 1,399 students. In 2025–2026 it ranked 77th of 148 Nevada middle schools, placing it at the 48th percentile with 2 stars — the middle of the statewide field. That is a notable change from 2017–2018, when it sat in the top quartile (30th of 114, 74th percentile, 4 stars). Since 2020–2021 it has generally hovered near the 48th–52nd percentile, and it slipped back to 2 stars this year after 3 stars the two years before.

Reading and science are Leavitt's relative strengths. All-grades reading proficiency is 45.0%, above the district's 43.3% and essentially at the state's 45.2%, ranking 3rd of 11 nearby schools. Science is the standout at 37.4%, well above the district's 23.5% and the state's 25.5%, and 4th locally — behind only Lied STEM Academy Middle School (49.5%), Becker Ernest Middle School (40.4%), and Cadwallader Ralph Middle School (38.4%). Math is the main drag: 26.7% proficiency, below the district's 33.8% and the state's 36.2%, and only 6th of 11 nearby. Grade 7 reading (53.0%) is a highlight, while grade 8 math (21.3%) is the lowest core-subject result.

Attendance has improved sharply. Chronic absenteeism fell from 32.5% in 2021–2022 to 21.2% in 2025–2026, better than the district's 27.0% and the state's 25.5%, and the 4th-lowest among nearby schools. The student-teacher ratio is 21.1 — the 4th-lowest locally even though Leavitt is the 4th-largest school in the group — and per-student spending of $11,160 is the 4th-lowest. Compared with neighbors, Leavitt is clearly stronger than Molasky Irwin & Susan Junior High School, Garside Frank F Junior High School, Brinley J Harold Middle School, and Swainston Theron L Middle School, but trails Lied STEM Academy Middle School, Cadwallader Ralph Middle School, and Johnson Walter Junior High School Academy of Int'l Studies.
