Summary:
Advantage Arts Academy is the sole public charter school serving grades K-6 in Herriman, Utah. With an enrollment of 323 students, the school is ranked 440 out of 547 Utah elementary schools, placing it in the bottom 20% statewide. Maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 3 years, Advantage Arts Academy struggles with low test scores, high chronic absenteeism, and moderate economic disadvantage among its student population.
The school's proficiency rates range from 21% to 48.9% across different grade levels and subject areas, significantly below the state averages of 44.4% to 49.9% in mathematics, 44% to 48.3% in English language arts, and 50% to 51.9% in science. With a chronic absenteeism rate of 23.8%, the school faces challenges in ensuring consistent student attendance and engagement. Additionally, the school's free/reduced lunch rate of 20.43% indicates that a portion of its student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
While the student-teacher ratio of 19:1 is slightly lower than the state average, this does not appear to translate into improved academic performance for Advantage Arts Academy. The school's consistently low rankings, test scores, and 1-star rating from SchoolDigger suggest that it may need to implement significant improvements and interventions to better support its students and improve academic outcomes.
