Summary

West Jordan High is a public high school serving grades 10-12 with a total enrollment of 1,870 students in West Jordan, Utah, which is part of the Jordan School District.

While West Jordan High consistently ranks in the bottom half of Utah high schools, the school faces significant challenges. Its academic performance on the Utah Aspire Plus assessments is well below the state and district averages, particularly in mathematics, where only 14.7% of 10th-grade students were proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to 29% statewide and 25.3% in the Jordan District. The school's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 78.7% to 90.4% in recent years, which is generally lower than the state and district averages, and its dropout rate has been as high as 19.1%, also higher than the state and district.

Interestingly, nearby schools in the Jordan District have very different performance profiles. Bingham High consistently outperforms West Jordan High, ranking in the top 20 Utah high schools, while Copper Hills High performs similarly to West Jordan High. The socioeconomic factors at West Jordan High, such as a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, may contribute to the school's lower academic performance and higher chronic absenteeism rates compared to higher-performing schools in the area.
