Riverview ranks among Utah’s strongest elementary schools, placing 50th of 563 schools and in the 91st percentile statewide for 2025–2026. It also holds a five-star SchoolDigger rating.

Academically, Riverview leads the nearby public elementary schools listed. Its approximate 2025–2026 proficiency averages were 64.8% in English Language Arts, 70.2% in mathematics, and 67.4% in science. Mathematics is the clearest strength, especially in third grade, where 77.6% of students were proficient, compared with 57.9% districtwide and 50.1% statewide. Riverview also exceeded district and state rates in every reported subject-grade comparison. The closest high-performing comparison is Harvest School, which ranked 61st statewide. Harvest was slightly stronger in average science and had lower absenteeism, but Riverview led in overall ranking and ELA. Other nearby schools, including River Rock School, North Point School, and Thunder Ridge School, ranked below Riverview.
The main areas to watch are attendance and sixth-grade performance. Chronic absenteeism was 26.5% in 2024–2025, higher than both the Alpine District’s 20.8% and Utah’s 23.8%, and up from 24.2% the prior year. Sixth-grade ELA was Riverview’s lowest tested result at 55.6%, down from 60.7% in 2023–2024, although it still exceeded district and state results. Riverview’s 24:1 student-teacher ratio is typical for the area, suggesting its strong outcomes are not simply a result of unusually small classes. Overall, the school offers sustained, top-tier academic performance, with attendance and upper-grade literacy representing the clearest opportunities for improvement.
