Summary

Stevens Josh Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Henderson, Nevada, serving 819 students as part of the Clark County school district, which makes it larger than most nearby district elementary schools. In 2025–2026 it ranked 86th of 376 Nevada elementary schools — the 77th percentile, with 4 stars — well above the district's overall state profile. It has stayed in the top quartile of Nevada elementary schools in most recent years, with a brief dip to the 67th percentile in 2023–2024.

In 2025–2026, 51.8% of students were proficient in Math, 61.6% in Reading and 25.6% in Science, all above district and state averages, with Math and Reading far above them. Every tested grade beat district and state averages in Math and Reading; 4th-grade Reading was the strongest single result at 65.1%, while 5th-grade Math, at 45.9%, was the lowest result and the clearest academic gap to watch. Reading is the standout subject overall.

Among nearby same-district schools, Stevens Josh is second only to McCaw Gordon Elementary School (72.2% Math, 79.0% Reading) and well ahead of Whitney Elementary School, Sewell C T Elementary School, Hinman Edna F Elementary School and Taylor Robert L Elementary School. Against nearby charters, its Reading nearly matches Pinecrest Academy of Nevada Horizon and Coral Academy Eastgate, and its 5th-grade Science is higher than all four charters, though its Math trails those two. It also outperforms Signature Preparatory and Legacy Traditional School Cadence in both Math and Reading. The clearest challenge is chronic absenteeism at 29.4%, above district and state and far above McCaw Gordon's 8.4%, although it improved from 44.1% in 2021–2022 before rising slightly this year. Notably, the school spends $12,315 per student — less than every nearby district school — with a student-teacher ratio of 14.8.
