American Academy of Innovation

American Academy of Innovation is the sole public charter high school serving grades 6-12 in South Jordan, Utah. Based on the available data, this school appears to be struggling academically compared to other high schools in the state, with a relatively low statewide ranking, below-average test scores, and high chronic absenteeism.

The school's 4-year graduation rate of 88.8% is slightly below the state average, while its dropout rate of 9.4% is higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally below the state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with the exception of 10th grade English Language Arts proficiency, which is slightly above the state average. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 23.8% is significantly above the state average, which may be contributing to its lower academic performance.

Despite the school's relatively low spending per student of $7,156, the data suggests that this is not translating into strong academic outcomes. The school's demographics, with a relatively low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, indicate that it is not serving a highly disadvantaged student population, which could make the academic challenges more concerning. Overall, the data suggests that American Academy of Innovation is a lower-performing high school in Utah that could benefit from further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student outcomes.
