Summary

Divich Kenneth Elementary School is a PK–5 public school in northwest Las Vegas with 1,171 students — the largest enrollment among the nearby schools reviewed — serving families in Clark County. It is rated 4 stars and ranked 65th of 376 Nevada elementary schools in 2025–26, placing it in the 83rd percentile statewide. Over the last six reported years its percentile has ranged from 72 to 83, with 2025–26 its strongest listed year, so its results read as consistently strong rather than a one-year spike.

In 2025–26, 60.2% of students were proficient in math and 64.2% in reading. Math sits 26.4 points above the district and 24.0 points above the state; reading is 20.9 points above the district and 19.0 points above the state. Among nearby Clark County district schools, Divich has the highest math proficiency and the second-highest reading proficiency, behind O Roarke Thomas Elementary School. Science is different: 27.0% proficiency is above district and state averages but trails O Roarke Thomas Elementary School, Darnell Marshall C Elementary School, Bilbray James Elementary School, Somerset Academy Skye Canyon, and Coral Academy Centennial Hills. Results also vary by grade: 3rd-grade math (69.5%) and reading (68.1%) are strong, while 4th-grade reading (55.2%) and 5th-grade math (48.8%) are the weaker pockets.

Chronic absenteeism is arguably the school's most distinctive strength at 13.8% in 2025–26 — down 11.5 percentage points since 2021–22 and the lowest rate among nearby Clark County district schools, where rates run 16.7% to 33.4%. Only Somerset Academy Skye Canyon (10.2%) and Coral Academy Centennial Hills (10.7%) are lower. Divich also enrolls more students than any nearby school while spending the least per student among nearby Clark County district schools ($11,715 in 2023–24) and carrying a higher student-teacher ratio (18.2), yet still posts the top math results in that group. Two caveats: the nearby charters are K–8 or K–6, so their all-grade scores include middle-school grades and are not perfectly comparable, and science scores for Thompson Sandra L Elementary School and Imagine School Mountain View are suppressed and should be treated as unknown rather than weak.
