Tate Myrtle Elementary School

Summary:

Tate Myrtle Elementary School is a public elementary school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving 737 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Clark County School District, the 7th ranked district in the state with a 3-star rating.

Academically, Tate Myrtle Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the Clark County and Nevada state averages in both mathematics and reading proficiency. For the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 33.3% in mathematics and 35.3% in reading, compared to 30.1% and 39.3% for Clark County, and 32.6% and 41.3% for the state, respectively. However, the school has shown some strengths in specific student subgroups, such as ranking 41st out of 132 Nevada elementary schools for African American students in mathematics and 22nd out of 213 schools for English Language Learner students in mathematics.

While Tate Myrtle Elementary has relatively high spending per student at $12,137 in the 2021-2022 school year, compared to the state average of $9,736 in 2019-2020, the school's performance lags behind nearby schools like Heard Lomie G Elementary, which outperformed Tate Myrtle by a wide margin in both mathematics and reading proficiency. This suggests that factors beyond just funding and resources, such as school leadership, curriculum, and instructional practices, may be contributing to the performance differences.

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.
