Summary

River Heights School is a public elementary school in Logan, Utah, serving approximately 608 students in pre-kindergarten through sixth grade as part of Cache District. Located near several schools with widely different performance levels, it is one of the stronger traditional public elementary schools in the area. The district ranks 16th out of 92 Utah districts, and River Heights ranks 76th of 563 schools statewide for 2025–2026, placing it in the 87th percentile with a four-star rating.

Academically, River Heights performs substantially above Utah averages in every reported grade and subject. Average proficiency is approximately 61.5% in English language arts, 64.9% in mathematics, and 67.5% in science. Mathematics is a particular strength in grades 3–5, including 79.0% proficiency in fourth grade. The main area to watch is sixth grade, where results are lower than in the preceding grades and below Cache District results in all three tested subjects. Providence School is a useful nearby comparison: the schools have nearly identical average ELA results, while River Heights is stronger in mathematics and Providence is stronger in science. Edith Bowen Laboratory School is an exceptional nearby outlier, ranking sixth statewide.

Attendance is one of River Heights’ clearest strengths. Chronic absenteeism fell to 12.8% in 2024–2025, well below both Cache District at 16.3% and Utah at 23.8%, and lower than the reported rates at nearby comparison schools. The student-teacher ratio was 21.7, which is reasonable but higher than at several smaller nearby schools, including Edith Bowen. The share of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch rose to 28.78%, indicating that the school serves a range of student needs. Overall, River Heights remains a high-performing school with strong attendance and mathematics outcomes, while continued attention to sixth-grade achievement and science would be valuable.
