Summary

Hayden Don E Elementary School is a PK–5 school in North Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 782 students in the Clark County School District, where 100% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years.

On 2025–26 state tests, 26.9% of Hayden students were proficient in math and 39.4% in reading — below the district (33.8% math, 43.3% reading) and the state (36.2% math, 45.2% reading). The state suppressed the school's science results, so no science score is available. Reading is a relative local strength: Hayden's reading proficiency ranks 3rd among nine nearby district elementaries. Math ranks 5th, and the school's real trouble spot is 5th-grade math at 12.9%, the lowest among nearby district schools. Third-grade math (40.5%) is much closer to district and state levels, so the math weakness is concentrated in the upper grades rather than spread evenly across the school.

The school is improving from a low base: since 2022–23, reading rose from 22.0% to 39.4% and math from 19.1% to 26.9%, while its state rank moved from the 9th to the 31st percentile. Chronic absenteeism is 31.7%, above the district's 27.0% and the state's 25.5%, though down from 43.4%. The student-teacher ratio of 16.6 is better than most nearby district schools. Two nearby schools show higher achievement is possible: Goynes Theron H & Naomi D Elementary School posts 44.1% math, 53.3% reading and 24.3% absenteeism while spending less, and Somerset Academy North Las Vegas, half a mile away, reaches 58.6% reading. Freedom Classical Academy K-8 scores 50.3% in reading, though its student population differs, with 52.42% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
