Summary
Schofield Jack Lund Middle School is a Clark County public school in Las Vegas, NV, serving grades 6–8 with 988 students. Its 2025–26 rank is 84th of 148 state middle schools—43rd percentile, 2 stars—so it is improving but still below the state median. It was a 3-star school in the mid-2010s, fell to 1 star by 2022–23, and has recovered to 2 stars and the low 40s. The district ranks 5th of 12 districts statewide at the 58th percentile with 4 stars, so Schofield is below the district’s overall profile.
Academically, math is the biggest concern: all-grades math is 25.9%, below the district’s 33.8% and the state’s 36.2%, and 8th-grade math is especially weak at 19.7% versus 27.9% statewide. Reading is closer to average at 42.5%, just below the district’s 43.3% and state’s 45.2%. Science looks strong at 30.7% all grades, above the district’s 23.5% and state’s 25.5%, but 8th-grade science is 30.7%—essentially the district’s 31.0% and below the state’s 33.4%. Locally, Schofield outperforms nearby lower-performing schools such as Cannon, Cortney, Woodbury, and Silvestri, but trails Greenspun, Tarkanian, White, Webb, Miller, and Coral Academy Windmill. Miller, for example, has 54.8% math and 64.3% reading versus Schofield’s 25.9% and 42.5%. Coral Academy Windmill is the standout nearby school but is a charter with much lower free/reduced lunch, so it is not a like-for-like comparison.
Attendance has improved: chronic absenteeism fell from 41.2% in 2021–22 to 17.4% in 2024–25 before rising to 24.5% in 2025–26, better than the district’s 27.0% and the state’s 25.5%. Still, top nearby schools have much lower rates, including Coral Academy Windmill at 6.7%, White and Webb at 17.0%, Greenspun at 17.7%, and Miller at 18.7%. Resource inputs do not explain the gap: Schofield spent $12,912 per student in 2023–24, more than Miller, Webb, White, Tarkanian, Greenspun, and Coral Academy Windmill, and its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio of 22.4 is lower than Miller, Webb, Tarkanian, and Coral Academy Windmill. Overall, Schofield is a mid-tier local school recovering from a sharp decline, with math as its clearest academic red flag.
