Summary:

Provo, Utah, has 14 elementary schools serving approximately 7,421 students, generally from prekindergarten or kindergarten through sixth grade, including 13 schools in Provo District and one charter school, Treeside Charter School. School quality varies considerably, with statewide rankings ranging from the 92nd percentile to the 3rd percentile. Enrollment is typically substantial, averaging about 530 students per school, and the schools offer families a wide range of academic and attendance profiles.

The strongest overall options are Wasatch School and Edgemont School, both five-star schools ranked in the top 10% statewide. Wasatch combines high achievement with the area’s lowest district-school chronic absenteeism rate, while Edgemont is especially strong in science and performs consistently well across subjects. Canyon Crest School has shown the largest recent ranking improvement and posted exceptional sixth-grade science results. Rock Canyon School is another dependable high performer, with balanced results in English language arts, mathematics, and science. Lakeview School also improved substantially, although attendance remains an area to watch. Westridge School performs above the statewide midpoint but shows weaker sixth-grade results than in earlier grades.

Families comparing schools should pay close attention to both achievement and attendance. Franklin School is the most urgent concern, ranking near the bottom statewide with low results across subjects and high chronic absenteeism. Spring Creek School and Timpanogos School also report low proficiency, while Amelia Earhart School faces similar academic challenges. Provo Peaks School has moderate academic results but notably high absenteeism, and Treeside Charter School is a separate charter option with exceptionally high absenteeism and less precise reported test results. Sunset View School and Provost School fall in the middle-to-lower range, so parents may wish to compare grade-specific results, attendance supports, and current school programs.
