Despite being part of a relatively high-performing district, Scott Jesse D Elementary School has consistently struggled, ranking in the bottom quartile of Nevada elementary schools and receiving 0 or 1 star ratings from SchoolDigger. The school has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.6% to 31.3% in recent years, which are significantly higher than the state and district averages.
