Summary

Alamo Tony Elementary School is a PK–5 school at 7455 El Camino Rd in Las Vegas, Nevada, enrolling 898 students in the Clark County School District. It is the largest elementary among the nearby same-district schools reviewed, and it serves a high-poverty population: 100% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in each of the last three reported years. Per-student spending reached $13,941 in 2023–2024, and the student/teacher ratio was 17.9 in 2024–2025. In 2025–2026 the school ranked 126th of 376 Nevada elementary schools (66th percentile, 3 stars) — above the state median, but below its 2021–2023 standing of the 75th–76th percentile and 4 stars, and below the 81st–82nd percentile of 2016–2018.

Math and reading are clear strengths. In 2025–2026, 50.1% of students were proficient in math (versus 33.8% in the district and 36.2% statewide) and 55.6% in reading (versus 43.3% and 45.2%). Fourth grade stood out with 62.8% in math and 62.1% in reading. Science is the clearest weakness: only 14.1% of students were proficient, below both the district (23.5%) and the state (25.5%). Chronic absenteeism was 20.5%, better than the district (27.0%) and state (25.5%); among nearby same-district schools, only Earl Marion B Elementary School (15.9%) and Mathis Dr. Beverly S Elementary School (17.9%) had lower rates.

Compared with nearby charter schools — Amplus Rainbow, Doral Academy West Pebble, and Legacy Traditional School Southwest Las Vegas — Alamo Tony posts lower proficiency and higher absenteeism. That comparison is not like-for-like: those charters serve far fewer low-income students, have much larger student/teacher ratios (27.5–39.3 versus 17.9), and spend far less per student ($7,252–$8,108 versus $13,941). Older subgroup rankings (2017–2018) show the school was rated highly effective for several student groups, though that data is dated and should be read cautiously. For parents, three things are worth watching: science instruction, the recent rank decline, and the small rise in absenteeism.
