Summary:

Beckley Will Elementary School is a public elementary school in Las Vegas, Nevada, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 784 students. The school is part of the Clark County School District, which is the 7th ranked district out of 13 in the state and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Beckley Will Elementary School consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of Nevada elementary schools, receiving a 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in SBAC Mathematics and Reading are significantly lower than the Clark County and Nevada state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's overall Mathematics proficiency rate was 16.7% compared to 30.1% for Clark County and 32.6% for Nevada.

The nearby schools, such as Lake Robert E Elementary, Harris George E Elementary, and Dearing Laura Elementary, also struggle academically, with similar low proficiency rates in Mathematics and Reading. However, the charter schools in the area, such as NV Rise Academy and Mater Mountain Vista, demonstrate significantly higher academic performance, suggesting that the charter school model may be more effective in this community.

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.

Open Quote This school holds a breakfast and book fair once a month. The good thing is, the students get free books, new, some used, to read, and a breakfast. They also hold a raffle to win prizes. But the one thing I am NOT happy about finding out is, other people donate foods like apples, oranges, etc... It is a nice thought that the are donated, however, they student I know, who is family, has brought home rotten apples, and oranges through these donations. We have had to throw out over half of the fruit. This is not safe. There could be a disease in these fruits. They school staff needs to inspect all donated fruits, etc.. before these kids bring them home. Close Quote

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.
