Summary

Bonneville Junior High is a public middle school in Salt Lake City, Utah, serving 624 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Granite School District, which is ranked 70 out of 93 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Bonneville Junior High's performance, as measured by RISE test scores, is generally below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in mathematics ranged from 27.6% (6th grade) to 35.2% (8th grade), compared to the state averages of 36.4% (6th grade) and 40.3% (8th grade). The school's science proficiency rates are slightly better, ranging from 41.9% (6th grade) to 45.4% (8th grade), but still below the state averages. Compared to nearby schools, such as Albion Middle, Churchill Junior High, and Olympus Junior High, Bonneville Junior High's academic performance is generally lower.

Bonneville Junior High has a higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 39.9% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024. The school also experiences high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 23.8% to 32.7% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. These factors, along with the school's per-student spending of $9,827 in 2018-2019 being slightly higher than the state average but lower than some of the nearby higher-performing schools, may contribute to the school's academic challenges. To improve student outcomes, the school and district may need to implement a comprehensive strategy that addresses these underlying issues.
