Summary:
ZIP code 89052 in Henderson, Nevada contains two large public middle schools serving grades 6–8: Webb Del E Middle School and Miller Bob Middle School. Both belong to the Clark County School District and together enroll about 3,206 students, making this a sizable school community.
Both schools rank among Nevada's top middle schools, each earning 4 stars and improving their statewide standing over three years. Miller Bob is the academic leader, ranking 22nd of 148 schools (85th percentile), while Webb Del E ranks 29th of 148 (80th percentile). Miller Bob outperforms Webb Del E in all-grade 2025–2026 proficiency: math 54.8% vs 48.7%, reading 64.3% vs 60.8%, and science 56.0% vs 53.1%. At the grade level, Miller Bob leads in all three math grades, 7th and 8th grade reading, and 8th grade science. Webb Del E's one grade-level edge is 6th grade reading, 64.3% vs 63.6%. Webb counters with lower chronic absenteeism (17.0% vs 18.7%) and a lower student/teacher ratio (24.7 vs 26.2), plus slightly larger enrollment.
Both schools far exceed district and state averages, especially in science — 53.1% and 56.0% versus 23.5% district and 25.5% state. Attendance is also strong, with both well below the district's 27.0% and the state's 25.5% chronic absenteeism rates. Per-student spending is nearly identical ($11,032 vs $11,021) and both report 100% free/reduced lunch, so funding does not explain the academic gap. Note that math and reading proficiency decline from 6th to 8th grade at both schools, and science dropped year over year (Webb −5.5 points, Miller −6.5 points). Families here get two high-performing options with nearly equal resources.
