Summary:

Sandy, Utah, has 18 elementary schools serving about 8,134 students, generally in grades K–5, with one school extending through sixth grade and another offering prekindergarten. Most schools belong to the Canyons District, while Beehive Science & Technology Academy Elementary operates in a separate charter district. The area offers a very wide range of academic outcomes, from schools ranked among Utah’s best to schools needing substantial academic and attendance support.

Peruvian Park School is the strongest overall performer, ranking third statewide in 2025–2026 with proficiency near 84% across reported subjects. Other standout choices include Willow Canyon School, especially strong in mathematics and science; Sunrise School, which has maintained an elite statewide ranking; and Lone Peak School, which improved sharply to 14th statewide. Granite School, Park Lane School, Brookwood School, and Quail Hollow School also offer strong results, with Brookwood and Quail Hollow notable for particularly low chronic absenteeism.

Parents should look beyond rankings and consider attendance and student needs. Sandy School ranks near the bottom statewide and has both the lowest proficiency and highest lunch-participation rate in the group, while Beehive Science & Technology Academy Elementary has the area’s most serious attendance problem. Glacier Hills Elementary shows that low absenteeism does not automatically produce strong test results. Schools such as Crescent School, East Sandy School, and Oakdale School have mixed or lower results but may warrant closer review of recent trends, support services, and attendance before families decide.
