Summary:
Zip code 89118 has two elementary schools, both in Clark County: Jydstrup Helen Elementary School and Earl Marion B Elementary School. Both serve PK–5, enroll a combined 1,085 students (563 at Jydstrup, 522 at Earl), and report 100% free/reduced lunch in 2024–25. Clark County is ranked 5th of 12 Nevada districts, in the 58th percentile, with 4 district stars.
Jydstrup Helen Elementary School is the academic standout. Its 2025–26 rank is 150th of 376 (60th percentile, 3 stars), up from a 2-star, 47th-percentile year in 2023–24. In 2025–26 it reached 50% proficiency in math and 49.6% in reading — above both district and state averages — with 4th-grade math at 56.8% and 5th-grade reading at 53.2%. Its weak spot is science at 12.9%, and 13.3% the year before, below district and state.
Earl Marion B Elementary School is the attendance standout, with 15.9% chronic absenteeism versus 21.4% at Jydstrup, 27.0% for the district, and 25.5% statewide. Its bright spot is 5th-grade reading at 53.4%, slightly above Jydstrup and above district/state. However, its 2025–26 rank is 231st of 376 (39th percentile, 2 stars), and it stayed at 2 stars across all three years of rank history. Its all-grades 2025–26 math (31.4%) and reading (42.5%) fell below district and state, and its 2025–26 science result is suppressed by the state. Science is a shared weakness for both schools. Notably, Earl spends more per student ($15,555 vs. $14,059) and has a smaller student-teacher ratio (14.9 vs. 20.8), yet Jydstrup has stronger outcomes — a reminder that outcomes depend on many factors beyond spending and class size.
