Summary
Davinci Academy is a large alternative public school in Ogden, Utah, serving 1,271 students in kindergarten through 12th grade. Its K–12 structure makes it different from most nearby alternative schools, which typically end at ninth grade, and gives families access to one school across the full education journey.
The school’s strongest results are in attendance and graduation. Davinci’s 2024–2025 graduation rate was 91.8%, above Utah’s 89.8%, and its dropout rate was 8.2%, slightly better than the state’s 8.5%. Chronic absenteeism was especially low at 11.2%, compared with 23.8% statewide. That was better than most nearby alternatives, including Venture Academy at 19.7%, Quest Academy at 22.1%, and Ogden Preparatory Academy at 36.5%. These results suggest Davinci is comparatively effective at keeping students engaged and on track to graduate.
Academic performance is more mixed. Current test results were generally below Utah averages, with mathematics the clearest area for improvement, particularly in grades 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9. English language arts was closer to the state average, with grades 6 and 7 showing relative strength, while science was promising in grades 5, 6, and 10 but weaker in grades 7 and 8. Quest Academy was the strongest nearby academic comparison, while Davinci generally outperformed Venture Academy on current tests. Families may also want to note Davinci’s student-teacher ratio of 21.3, which is relatively high and has increased in recent years.
