Original Research by School Decision on Ries Aldeane Comito Es
Ries Aldeane Comito Elementary School sits on South Lindell Road in Las Vegas, serving pre-kindergarten through fifth grade as part of the Clark County School District. It is a regular public school, neither a charter nor a magnet, and it draws a diverse student body. Hispanic students make up the largest share of enrollment, followed by Asian, white, Black, and multiracial students, with smaller groups of Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander and American Indian or Alaska Native students. Every student at the school qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch, which reflects the economic profile of the surrounding community.
On state assessments administered under Nevada's SBAC testing program, the school's results in English language arts and math land in a moderate range. ELA proficiency sits above math, with nearly half of tested students meeting or exceeding standards in reading and writing, while math proficiency trails somewhat behind but still captures a solid share of students. Participation rates are strong across both subjects. Science proficiency, by contrast, is markedly lower, with only a small fraction of tested students reaching proficiency. The science assessment was taken by far fewer students than the math and ELA tests, which aligns with the grade band since science testing typically occurs at specific grade levels rather than across all grades. A parent may want to look into the school's science instruction and curriculum support further to understand what lies behind this result. Average scale score data was not available, so there is no finer-grained performance detail to draw on beyond the proficiency rates.
The school does not have multi-year trend data available, so it is hard to say from the provided information whether performance is improving, declining, or holding steady over time. IEP and English Learner subgroup data were also not reported, which limits the picture of how the school serves students with disabilities and those developing English proficiency.
In terms of the surrounding area, the school's zip code shows home values above both the Nevada state benchmark and the national benchmark, though values have been declining year over year. Rents in the area are more moderate relative to the purchase price, and rent-to-income ratios sit at a level that is generally considered manageable. Mortgage costs, given current interest rates, run higher than monthly rents, which means renting may be the more affordable path for many families in this neighborhood. The broader economic environment shows a stable unemployment picture nationally, and median household income has been edging upward over recent years.
The district brief for Clark County School District did not surface any recent policy, curriculum, referendum, or tax changes with lasting parent impact. The search returned results focused on county geography and government structure rather than school district developments. No locale brief was available for this school's specific community context, and no neighbor comparison data was provided, so there is no direct side-by-side read against nearby schools.
Program offerings, course access, staffing levels, attendance patterns, and discipline data were not available for this school, which leaves gaps in understanding the full school environment. Title I status was also not reported, though the universal free-or-reduced-price lunch rate suggests the school serves a high-poverty population regardless of formal designation. Civil rights data was not provided either.
For a family considering this school, the academic picture is mixed. English language arts and math results are moderate and workable, while science stands out as an area that warrants further questions. The student body is diverse, and the school community is one where economic need is widespread. The housing market in the immediate area carries above-average home prices that have been softening, with renting potentially more accessible than buying for many households.
