Summary:

Murray District includes 10 schools serving about 5,531 students across elementary, middle, and high school grades in the Murray area of Utah. Overall, the district ranks 54th of 92 Utah districts, but school quality varies considerably. The strongest overall options are Viewmont School, McMillan School, and Grant School. Viewmont has the highest current ranking, at the 71st statewide percentile, while McMillan and Grant also report strong results, especially in mathematics and science. Grant has the district’s lowest chronic absenteeism rate, at 12.8%.

Among the middle schools, Riverview Junior High is the stronger choice based on ranking, test results, and attendance. Its chronic absenteeism rate is 13.1%, compared with 35.0% at Hillcrest Junior High. Longview School and Horizon School fall closer to the middle of the district, with generally mixed academic results. Parents should note that mathematics is a recurring weakness, particularly in sixth grade, while science is often a relative strength.

Parkside School and Liberty School need the greatest elementary-level support. Both have low statewide rankings and very high chronic absenteeism: 42.7% at Parkside and 37.8% at Liberty. Parkside also has the district’s lowest reported assessment performance. At the secondary level, Murray High has reasonable attendance but faces concerns with graduation, dropout rates, ranking, and tenth-grade achievement, especially mathematics. Its current proficiency is below the state in ELA, mathematics, and science, so families may wish to examine graduation supports, course offerings, and intervention programs carefully.
