Summary:
ZIP code 89119 in Las Vegas is served by five public schools in the Clark County School District: four elementary schools and one middle school, with no high schools in the data. Together they enroll 3,067 students, and every one reports 100% free or reduced lunch, so this is a uniformly high-need area. The middle school, Orr William E Middle School, is the largest at 919 students, while elementary enrollment ranges from 429 at Paradise Prof Dev Elementary School to 614 at Rowe Lewis E Elementary School.
Dailey Jack Elementary School is the clearest bright spot: it has the strongest current reading proficiency among the elementaries at 41.7%, the lowest chronic absenteeism in the ZIP at 24.8% — below both district and state — and the biggest rank improvement, rising to the 41st percentile and 2 stars. Rowe Lewis E Elementary School is mixed: it has the highest current math (28.5%) and science (11.3%) among elementaries and the lowest student-teacher ratio (14.2), but its reading fell from 47.6% to 39.1% and its rank dropped to the 27th percentile with 1 star. Orr William E Middle School faces the most acute challenges: the lowest rank (148 of 148, 0 stars), the highest absenteeism at 41.9%, 6.5% math and 15.8% reading proficiency, the highest student-teacher ratio at 27, and the lowest per-student spending at $13,272.
Two other elementaries trail: Ward Gene Elementary School ranks in the 3rd percentile with 0 stars and the lowest elementary math (15.7%) and reading (25.5%), while Paradise Prof Dev Elementary School spends the most per student ($20,909) yet remains below benchmarks at 24.5% math, 30.6% reading, and 34.8% chronic absenteeism, though it did improve year over year. No school in the ZIP exceeds district or state proficiency in 2025-2026, and reading is consistently stronger than math. Science and several grade-level math values are suppressed in the data, meaning those results are unknown rather than zero.
