Summary

Scott Jesse D Elementary School is a PK–5 school in North Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 712 students as part of the Clark County School District. The district itself is rated 4 stars and ranks 5th of 12 districts statewide, but the school's own 2025–2026 results place it near the bottom of Nevada elementary schools: rank 362 of 376, the 4th percentile, with 0 stars. It serves a high-poverty population, with 100% of students reported as eligible for free or reduced-price lunch across 2022–2023 through 2024–2025, and that bottom-decile ranking has persisted for several years.

In 2025–2026, 16.3% of students were proficient in math and 25.7% in reading across all grades — the lowest rates among the nearby schools compared here, including same-district peers such as Duncan Ruby Elementary School (21.2% math, 27.7% reading) and Elizondo Raul P Elementary School (22.4% math, 27.0% reading). Fourth-grade math is the sharpest weak point: 13.0% proficient, compared with 40.8% in the district and 43.4% statewide — a gap of nearly 28 points. Reading consistently runs about 8–9 points above math, but both subjects remain far below district and state averages. Science results were suppressed by the state, so science performance is unknown, not zero.

Chronic absenteeism has improved substantially, falling from 57.4% in 2021–2022 to 31.5% in 2025–2026. That is meaningful progress, yet the rate remains above the district (27.0%) and state (25.5%), and above nearby Antonello Lee Elementary School (25.0%). The school spent $14,256 per student in 2023–2024 with a 19.7 student–teacher ratio in 2024–2025 — not the lowest-funded or most crowded in its peer group, yet it posts the lowest proficiency. The nearby charters, Somerset Academy North Las Vegas (72nd percentile) and Freedom Classical Academy K-8 (52nd percentile), spend far less per student ($8,868 and $6,888) and have higher student–teacher ratios, but outperform by wide margins.
