Summary:
Beehive Science & Technology Academy is the only high school in this list, serving grades 6–12 in Sandy, Utah, with 424 students, a 17:1 student-teacher ratio, and a science-and-technology focus.
Beehive Science & Technology Academy performs especially well in middle-school mathematics and English language arts. In 2025–2026, math proficiency was higher than Utah’s rate in grades 6, 7, and 8, including a standout 68.8% in seventh grade compared with 46.2% statewide. ELA results were also above the state in every reported grade from 6 through 10, with the largest advantage in seventh grade. Eighth-grade science and ninth-grade science were additional strengths. These results suggest that students generally perform better than state averages in core subjects, particularly during the middle-school years.
Parents should pay close attention to the school’s high-school mathematics results. Although middle-school math is strong, proficiency fell to 36.7% in ninth grade and 28.3% in tenth grade, with ninth-grade math declining sharply from the prior year. This transition is the school’s clearest academic challenge. Attendance is a relative strength: chronic absenteeism was 21.1%, below both the statewide rate of 23.8% and the local district rate of 37.3%, although about one in five students was still chronically absent. The school ranked 48th of 139 schools, placing it in the 65th percentile—solidly above the midpoint, but lower than its 2024–2025 ranking. Because the school is relatively small, grade-level results and rankings may fluctuate from year to year.
