Perkins Dr Claude G Elementary School has consistently underperformed compared to the Clark County and Nevada state averages in both mathematics and reading proficiency. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 21.3% in mathematics and 26.7% in reading, compared to 30.1% and 39.3% for Clark County, and 32.6% and 41.3% for the state. The school has a low statewide ranking, placing in the bottom quartile of Nevada elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Interestingly, nearby schools such as Mackey Jo Elementary have significantly higher proficiency rates in both mathematics (46.5%) and reading (55.5%).

Perkins Dr Claude G Elementary School faces significant challenges, with a high percentage of students (100%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's relatively high student-teacher ratio of 20.8 in 2022-2023 may also contribute to the academic challenges. While the school has seen an increase in per-student spending, from $9,247 in 2018-2019 to $11,740 in 2021-2022, this increased funding has not translated into improved academic outcomes for the school.

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.
