Summary:

ZIP code 89012 in Henderson, Nevada contains three public schools, all of them elementary schools serving grades PK–5, with a combined enrollment of 1,719 students. There are no middle schools, high schools, or alternative schools in this ZIP. All three belong to Clark County School District, which is ranked 5th of 12 districts in Nevada, at the 58th percentile with 4 stars.

Two of the three are standouts statewide. Twitchell Neil C Elementary School ranks 20th of 376 schools (95th percentile) and earned 5 stars, with the ZIP's highest Mathematics proficiency (71.2%) and Science proficiency (44%), plus the lowest chronic absenteeism (12.7%). Vanderburg John Elementary School ranks 27th of 376 (93rd percentile), also with 5 stars, and leads the ZIP in Reading (70.3%). Both schools score far above district and state averages in every subject. Twitchell has moved ahead of Vanderburg over the past three years, though both remain among Nevada's top performers.

Brown Hannah Marie Elementary School is the largest of the three at 626 students, but trails its neighbors: it ranks 122nd of 376 (68th percentile) and earned 3 stars, down from 4. Its Mathematics (49%) and Reading (56.1%) still beat district and state averages, but its Science score fell from 41.1% to 19.4%. Notably, all three schools keep chronic absenteeism well below the district's 27.0% and the state's 25.5%. Per-student spending and student-teacher ratios do not line up neatly with results — Brown spends the least and has the smallest classes, while the higher-ranked schools spend more. Overall, this is a strong elementary cluster, with Brown's Science slide the main item to watch.
