UNION ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
UNION ELEMENTARY is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the WEST LAS VEGAS school district, located in LAS VEGAS, NM with about 85 students offering grade levels from 3rd Grade to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 4 teachers, UNION ELEMENTARY has a student/teacher ratio of about 21:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
