Summary

Edith Bowen Laboratory School is a small K–6 school with 359 students on Old Main Hill in Logan, Utah, near several traditional elementary schools and within the Edith Bowen Laboratory School district. It is one of Utah’s highest-performing schools, ranking 6th out of 563 statewide in 2025–2026 and placing in the 99th percentile with a five-star rating. Its ranking has improved steadily, from 66th in 2021–2022 to 6th today.

Academic results are strong across every tested subject. In 2025–2026, ELA proficiency ranged from 72.6% to 88.5%, mathematics from 60.8% to 86.6%, and science from 76.5% to 92.3%—all well above Utah averages. Grade 5 was especially impressive, with 88.5% proficient in ELA, 86.6% in math, and 92.3% in science. The school also outperformed nearby River Heights School in grades 3–6 ELA and math. Its statewide rank is substantially stronger than those of nearby Hillcrest School, Greenville School, and schools in the Logan City District.

A notable structural feature is Edith Bowen’s reported 11.3 student-teacher ratio, much lower than the approximately 18–23 ratios reported by most nearby schools. Its 19.78% free/reduced-price lunch rate is also lower than most comparison schools, an important context when comparing test results. Grade 6 deserves monitoring because performance falls to 60.8% in math and 72.6% in ELA, though both remain above state averages. Chronic absenteeism, at 22.8%, is slightly better than Utah’s 23.8% but has risen from 16.1% the previous year. Overall, the school combines exceptional achievement with a recent attendance concern and a grade 6 performance gap worth watching.

What people are saying

by a parent
Saturday, May 20, 2017

Not a good school for special needs children. This is not just the ravings of one upset parent. I have talked to several after the smoke and mirrors illusion of this being a great school was lifted from my perspective. Another mom I know has had Utah Parent Advocates accompany her to IEP meetings. Former students have told me how sad their rotation made them because the kids weren't getting the help they needed. All the people leaving reviews on here must have perfect children that are considered good enough for Edith Bowen. They repeatedly sent my autistic son home as a "punishment". Read some books on autism, please. They prefer familiar, comfortable environments, as do most of us. Of course he is going to act up, if he gets the reward of going home. My husband tried to help my son in the classroom to settle down and he was asked to leave. I have been told by a teacher, "Word better not get out that this is the school for kids with disabilities. It will bankrupt the school." This was said to a mother of 3 children with IEP's. I'm part of their funding problem apparently. That would make sense for them to make us as uncomfortable as possible to force us out of the school. The school counselor has told me, "We don't have the expertise for special needs children." Go ahead and keep sending your perfect children to Edith Bowen, that's all that's good enough for them. But maybe you would be better off supporting your neighborhood elementary school. I know my children were certainly doing much better at Bridger than they did this last year at Edith Bowen. Don't be conned by all their certifications and awards, half the public elementary schools in Logan have earned the same designations. I know first hand of an employee that left this year because of the "drama." Close Quote
