Summary

Utah Military Academy is a public charter high school located in Riverdale, Utah, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 528 students. The school is part of the Utah Military Academy district, which is ranked 87 out of 93 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Utah Military Academy consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of Utah high schools, with academic performance significantly below the state average across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 13.3% of 7th graders were proficient in math, compared to the state average of 45.4%. The school's four-year graduation rate is around 90%, slightly below the state average, and its dropout rate ranges from 6.7% to 9.8% in recent years, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, Utah Military Academy has a very high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 23.8% to 46.1% in recent years, significantly above the state average.

In comparison, the nearby Clearfield High School, which is part of the higher-performing Davis School District, significantly outperforms Utah Military Academy across all academic measures. Similarly, the No. UT. Acad. for Math Engineering & Science, a public magnet charter school, consistently ranks among the top 2 high schools in the state and outperforms Utah Military Academy. While Utah Military Academy spends approximately $10,175 per student, which is higher than the state average, its military-focused curriculum and approach do not appear to be effectively supporting the academic needs of its diverse student population.
