Harris George E Elementary School

Summary:

Harris George E Elementary School is a public elementary school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 683 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Clark County School District, which is the 7th ranked district out of 13 in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's high spending per student, which reached $11,982 in the 2021-2022 school year, Harris George E Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of Nevada elementary schools, with proficiency rates on SBAC assessments significantly below the state and district averages in both mathematics and reading. For example, in 2023-2024, only 22.3% of students were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 32.6% statewide and 30.1% in the Clark County district. The school's performance is particularly low for specific student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, and low socioeconomic status students.

Interestingly, some nearby charter schools, like Mater Mountain Vista and NV Rise Academy Charter School, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance, with proficiency rates exceeding the state and district averages. This suggests that the challenges faced by Harris George E Elementary may be unique and require a comprehensive approach to address the educational needs of its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
