Summary

West Jordan School is an elementary school located in West Jordan, Utah, serving grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 456 students. The school is part of the Jordan School District, which is ranked 49 out of 100 districts in Utah and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While West Jordan School has a higher percentage of White students (61.84%) compared to the surrounding schools, such as Majestic School (35.02% White) and Columbia School (31.18% White), its academic performance consistently ranks in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in RISE assessments for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally lower than the Jordan District and Utah state averages. Additionally, West Jordan School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (around 40-45%), which is higher than some of the nearby schools like Westland School (23.98%) and Calvin S. Smith School (25.7%).

Despite the relatively high spending per student at West Jordan School ($9,783), the academic performance of the school does not seem to be commensurate with the level of funding. This could indicate potential issues with the allocation or utilization of resources within the school. Furthermore, the school's consistently low academic performance and unique racial makeup compared to the surrounding schools suggest that there may be underlying challenges that need to be addressed to improve student outcomes at West Jordan School.
