Nevada’s latest school report card reveals a mixed picture: while some progress is being made, most students still fall short of grade-level expectations. State Superintendent Victor Wakefield stresses the urgent need to turn the state’s strategic plan into real classroom action. A new District Performance Framework rates Clark County as “intermediate,” placing it in the middle, while only three districts earned top marks and three got the lowest. Though five-star schools declined statewide and one-star schools rose, 73% of Clark County schools held or improved their ratings — including Marshall C. Darnell Elementary, which soared from one to five stars. Math and ELA show gains, especially at higher grades, but science lags badly — though Clark County high schools outperform the state. Chronic absenteeism dropped across the board, and officials are now seeking public input for a new five-year plan targeting better outcomes by 2031.
