Summary

Plymouth School is an elementary school located in Salt Lake City, Utah, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 542 students. It 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. Unfortunately, Plymouth School has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Utah elementary schools over the past decade, with a ranking between 500-560 out of around 550-570 schools.

Some key factors that differentiate Plymouth School include very high chronic absenteeism rates, significantly lower test scores compared to state and district averages, and a much higher percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. For example, in 2024-2025, only 23.6% of 3rd graders and 11.2% of 5th graders were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 48.6% and 44.4% statewide. When comparing Plymouth School to nearby schools in the Granite School District, such as Bennion School and Calvin S. Smith School, it consistently performs worse on key metrics.

Given Plymouth School's consistently low performance, it would be important to conduct a comprehensive needs assessment to identify the root causes of the challenges and develop a targeted improvement plan. This could involve strategies such as improving attendance, strengthening instructional practices, providing more targeted support for struggling students, and engaging the community more effectively.
