Summary

Ellis Robert & Sandy Elementary School is a PK–5 elementary school in Henderson, NV, part of the Clark County School District, serving 909 students — the largest enrollment among the nearby Clark County elementaries in this comparison. The school is rated 4 stars and ranked 83rd of 376 Nevada elementary schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 78th percentile. Its star rating has held steady at 4, but its percentile has drifted down over time, from the 86th–88th range in 2020–2022 to 82nd–84th in 2022–2025 and 78th now. The reported 100% free/reduced-lunch rate appears to be a district reporting convention, since every nearby Clark County school in this sample reports the same figure.

Academically, Ellis is solid, especially in reading and math. In 2025–2026, 54.9% of students were proficient in math and 64.8% in reading — roughly 19 to 21 points above district and state averages. Reading is the clearest strength, reaching 71.3% by 5th grade, though math slides from 59.4% in 3rd grade to 48.2% in 5th. Science is the notable weakness: 5th-grade proficiency is 18.1%, which edges out district (15.8%) and state (17.4%) figures but trails most nearby schools, including Barber Shirley A Elementary School (29.3%), Wolff Elise L Elementary School (32.6%) and Lamping Frank Elementary School (35.2%).

Attendance is a relative strength: chronic absenteeism is 18.3%, well below the district (27.0%) and state (25.5%), and improved from 24.9% in 2021–2022 — though Taylor Glen C Elementary School (16.1%) and the Pinecrest charters do better. Per-student spending rose sharply, from $9,518 to $15,357 in one year, while the student-teacher ratio of 17.1 remains mid-range locally. The recent rank slippage, tied to lower math and science scores, is worth watching.
