Summary

Holt School is an elementary school located in Clearfield, Utah, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 485 students. It is part of the Davis School District, which is ranked 42 out of 93 districts in Utah and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, Holt School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

Holt School's academic performance consistently underperforms compared to the Davis District and state averages in RISE test scores for Mathematics, Science, and English Language Arts across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Holt School's 3rd-grade Mathematics proficiency rate was 44.7%, compared to the Davis District's 52% and the state's 48.6%. Additionally, Holt School has significantly higher chronic absenteeism rates than the state average, ranging from 20% to 32.2% over the past few years, indicating a potential issue with student engagement and attendance. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 39.77% to 42.89% over the past few years, suggesting a higher proportion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

When comparing Holt School to the nearby schools in the Davis District, it becomes evident that Holt School is underperforming academically. For instance, Cook School and Parkside School, which are also in the Davis District, consistently outperform Holt School in RISE test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. These factors, along with Holt School's higher student-teacher ratio, suggest that there may be opportunities for the school and the district to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address these challenges and improve educational outcomes for the students.

Open Quote Faculty and teachers here seem to have no clue how to handle kids at all. Both of my kids have struggled after going to this school and we've never had problems like this before. They can't control problem children, they let them disrupt everyone else, and then blame all the kids that get involved for the problems they let get out of control in the first place. Avoid this school if at all possible! Close Quote
