Elementary Schools in Davis District

Davis District includes 63 elementary schools in northern Utah, serving primarily prekindergarten through sixth grade, with Davis Connect K-6 extending through eighth grade in an online or alternative format. Schools vary widely in size, achievement, attendance, and student needs, so districtwide averages do not fully describe the options available to families.

The strongest overall academic profiles belong to Windridge School, Farmington School, Stewart School, Snow Horse School, and Valley View School, which ranked in the state’s 90th percentile or higher. Windridge ranked 16th statewide and combined strong results in English language arts, mathematics, and science with only 10.0% chronic absenteeism. Snow Horse posted the highest exact mathematics result reported, 86.7% in fourth grade, while Valley View reached 85.3% in fifth-grade mathematics and 86.7% in fifth-grade science. Other high-performing choices include Knowlton School, Adams School, Columbia School, and Oak Hills School. Several schools, including Farmington and Sunburst, also made notable recent ranking gains.

The greatest challenges appear at Lincoln School, Doxey School, South Clearfield School, Wasatch School, and Holt School, where low achievement often coincides with chronic absenteeism above the district’s 18.6% rate. South Clearfield reported the highest absenteeism, 34.1%, while Lincoln ranked in the second statewide percentile. Across the district, upper-elementary mathematics—especially fifth and sixth grade—is a key dividing line: top schools maintain strong results, while many lower-ranked schools show sharp declines. Student-teacher ratios and older spending figures do not consistently predict performance, so parents should consider achievement across subjects, attendance, school trends, and the school’s specific context when comparing options within the Davis District.
