of 563 Utah Elementary Schools

Better than 96% of Utah elementary schools

Summary

Granite School is a K–5 elementary school in Sandy, Utah, serving 303 students in the Canyons District in a neighborhood close to several other local elementary schools. It is relatively small compared with campuses such as Peruvian Park School and Lone Peak School, which enroll more than 500 students. Granite’s 2025–2026 statewide ranking was 22nd of 563 Utah elementary schools, placing it in the 96th percentile and earning a five-star rating.

Academically, Granite is one of the strongest schools in its comparison group. It ranked just behind Peruvian Park and Lone Peak and one place ahead of Willow Canyon School. Its long-term record is even more impressive, with rankings generally in approximately the top 4%–5% of Utah schools for more than a decade. Recent results are especially strong in mathematics and science: 3rd-grade math was 75%, 5th-grade math was 81.3%, and 5th-grade science was 79.2%, all well above district and state results. English language arts is also strong in 3rd and 5th grades. The main academic area to watch is 4th-grade ELA, reported as 40%–58%, while 4th-grade math and science were each reported as 70%–88%.

Granite also offers a favorable 17.8 student-teacher ratio, lower than nearly all nearby comparison schools except Park Lane School. Its clearest weakness is attendance: chronic absenteeism was 23.8% in 2024–2025, improved from 29.4% three years earlier but still higher than rates at Brookwood School, Canyon View School, and Willow Canyon. Overall, Granite combines exceptional, broad-based achievement with a small-school setting; 4th-grade literacy and continued attendance improvement are the most important areas to monitor.
