Summary
Ries Aldeane Comito Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Las Vegas, NV (89141) serving 842 students in the Clark County School District, which is rated 5th of 12 Nevada districts. For 2025–2026, Ries ranks 166th of 376 Nevada elementary schools — the 56th percentile with 3 stars — placing it squarely in the middle of the pack. Over the past decade its percentiles have mostly landed in the 46th–71st range, with a high point in 2023–2024 (71st percentile, 4 stars), a sharp drop in 2024–2025 (49th percentile, 2 stars), and a partial rebound since. It serves a fully economically disadvantaged population, reporting 100% free/reduced lunch in recent years. Per-student spending reached $13,899 in 2023–2024, essentially the same as nearby Clark County peers, while its student-teacher ratio of 17.9 is slightly above the nearby average of about 16.5.
Academically, Ries beats the district and state in core subjects but trails its immediate neighbors. Its 2025–2026 all-grade results were 47.6% in Math and 50.7% in Reading, above district (33.8% and 43.3%) and state levels, yet below the nearby same-district averages of roughly 50.7% in Math and 58.3% in Reading. Schools such as Jones Blackhurst Jan L Elementary School, Stuckey Evelyn Elementary School, Mathis Dr. Beverly S Elementary School, and Frias Charles & Phyllis Elementary School clearly outperform Ries, especially in Reading. Science is the standout weakness: 9.0% proficiency, far below district 23.5%, state 25.5%, and the nearby average of roughly 25.5%, and it has declined steadily from 19.1% in 2022–2023. Grade-level results show strength in 3rd and 4th grade Math and Reading, but weaker 5th grade Math (31.9%) and 5th grade Science (9.0%).
Chronic absenteeism is 25.4%, better than the district's 27.0% and about equal to the state's 25.5%, but well above nearby schools like Jones Blackhurst Jan L Elementary School (15.1%), Frias Charles & Phyllis Elementary School (15.7%), and Mathis Dr. Beverly S Elementary School (17.9%). Two nearby state-sponsored charters, Doral Academy West Pebble and Legacy Traditional School Southwest Las Vegas, score higher while spending less, but serve far lower shares of low-income students, so they are not directly comparable. Overall, Ries is a solid but not standout school whose biggest academic priority is Science, with attendance a likely operational leverage point.
