Summary

Saratoga Shores School is a public prekindergarten–sixth-grade school in Saratoga Springs, Utah, serving 777 students in the growing Alpine District and nearby communities. It is one of the strongest elementary schools in the area, ranking 62nd out of 563 Utah schools for 2025–2026 and in the 89th statewide percentile. The school earned a four-star SchoolDigger rating, while the Alpine District ranks 32nd out of 92 Utah districts.

Academic results are well above both district and state averages. Across tested grades, Saratoga Shores averaged 64.2% proficiency in English language arts, 60.8% in mathematics, and 72.9% in science, compared with 52.9%, 53.5%, and 59.6% in the district. Science is the clearest strength: the school led nearby Alpine schools in fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-grade science, with 81.3% of sixth graders proficient. Upper-grade performance is also especially strong in ELA and math. Its 62nd-place ranking is well ahead of Dry Creek School, ranked 143rd, and other nearby schools such as Snow Springs School and Springside School.

The school’s long-term results have been consistently strong rather than the product of a single standout year. Its student-teacher ratio improved to 23.1:1 in 2024–2025, although several nearby schools have lower ratios. Chronic absenteeism was 21.4%, below Utah’s 23.8% but slightly above the district’s 20.8%. Families may want to ask about third- and fifth-grade mathematics, where results were weaker than in other grades, even as sixth-grade math improved substantially. Saratoga Shores also serves a comparatively small share of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch—8.62%—which is useful context when comparing outcomes with nearby schools.
