Summary

Goynes Theron H & Naomi D Elementary School is a PK–5 elementary school in North Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 675 students as part of Clark County School District. It reports 100% free/reduced lunch, indicating a high-poverty population, spends $13,572 per student (2023–2024), and had a student-teacher ratio of 18.2 (2024–2025).

Academically, Goynes beats both district and state in Math and Reading. In 2025–2026, 44.1% of students were proficient in Math (district 33.8%, state 36.2%) and 53.3% in Reading (district 43.3%, state 45.2%). Reading is the standout: 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades are all above district and state. Math is strong overall, though 5th-grade math (34.2%) sits just under the state's 34.7%. Science is the weak spot at 20.7%, below district (23.5%) and state (25.5%), although the 5th-grade science result is above the district and state 5th-grade figures. Among nearby schools, Goynes outperforms Antonello Lee Elementary School, Cozine Steve and Linda Elementary School, Wolfe Eva Elementary School, Guy Addeliar D III Elementary School, and Simmons Eva G Elementary School in Math and Reading, is close to Triggs Vincent L Elementary School, and trails Heckethorn Howard E Elementary School, Somerset Academy North Las Vegas, and Somerset Academy Aliante — the last being the strongest nearby performer (56.6% Math, 65.0% Reading, 41.5% Science).

Chronic absenteeism has improved from 35.3% in 2021–2022 to 24.3% in 2025–2026, better than the district (27.0%) and state (25.5%), though Somerset Aliante (9.7%) and Triggs (20.7%) are lower. Goynes spends less than several nearby district schools it outperforms, including Cozine and Wolfe. The main watch item: the school's state rank slipped from the 70th percentile with 4 stars in 2024–2025 to the 60th percentile with 3 stars in 2025–2026, with Math and Reading both declining. Scores remain above district and state, so this may be a one-year fluctuation rather than a trend.
