Summary

Thompson Sandra L Elementary School is a PK–5 school with 628 students on North Campbell Road in northwest Las Vegas (89149), part of the Clark County school district, where the reported free/reduced-lunch population is 100%. In 2025–26 it ranked 140th of 376 Nevada elementary schools — the 63rd percentile, 3 stars — with 43.9% of students proficient in math and 52.0% in reading, both comfortably above district and state averages.

The catch is the neighborhood. All seven comparable Clark County elementaries within about two miles scored higher in both subjects — from Rhodes Betsy (73rd percentile) up to O Roarke Thomas and Darnell Marshall C (both 90th) — and Thompson is the only 3-star school in that group, with a math gap of roughly 16 points to Divich Kenneth. Nearby charter options are a coin flip rather than a clear upgrade: Coral Academy Centennial Hills is the area's top performer at the 90th percentile, while Imagine School Mountain View ranks 32nd with 30.0% math proficiency.

Over the longer term, Thompson was 18th statewide (95th percentile, 5 stars) in 2015–16 and has slid about 32 percentile points since; the last three years have been flat at 61, 61 and 63. Reading has been its steadiest subject, while 5th-grade math (34.0%) is the only grade-subject result below the state average — and science results for 2025–26 were suppressed by the state, so the current level is unknown. Attendance is a genuine strength at 24.7% chronically absent, better than district and state, though up from 18.7% the year before. Per-student spending of $12,200 is the second-lowest among nearby district peers, and class size improved to 16.1 students per teacher.

WE LOVE Sandra Thompson School, We had our son in Bozart Elementary School and I would take Sandra Thompson any day, the school is cleaner, the principle is out of this world, the office staff is amazing ( and I do have to comment on Suzie, OMG WE LOVE HER, so polite and very very helpful, the office staff from day one has made us feel as if we are family. We had an issue this year and the school went out of their way to make sure all would be ok. The teachers so far has been outstanding and they seem to put a lot of their off time into assignments. I love the communications I have with everyone in the school concerning my son.
This should be a 5 Star School just on staff alone.
I also want to send a HUGE THANKYOU to the transportation service for their amazing assistance this year on making sure all the children that rode the bus got home safely. You all are the best and I tip my hat to you all.
