Bridge Elementary School

Bridge Elementary School is a K–6 public school in Roy, Utah, serving 558 students in a moderately diverse area, with recent academic results that rank it near the bottom of the state and below most nearby comparison schools. Bridge ranks 493rd of 563 Utah elementary schools, placing it in the 12th percentile, and its reported district standing is 86th of 92. About 35.13% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The school’s student-teacher ratio is 24.9, the highest among the nearby schools reviewed.

Academic results are below Utah averages in every tested grade and subject. About 26.9% of students were proficient in English language arts, 26.2% in math, and 24.5% in science, compared with statewide averages of roughly 45.7%, 45.7%, and 54.3%. Sixth grade is the greatest concern: proficiency was 8.9% in ELA, 15.6% in math, and 17.8% in science. Science is also a particular weakness in grades 4–6. For comparison, Country View School—about 1.29 miles away—outperformed Bridge in all 11 tested subject-grade combinations and ranked in the 63rd percentile statewide. Parkside School also had stronger results, along with a lower student-teacher ratio and lower chronic absenteeism.

Attendance is one area showing progress. Bridge’s chronic absenteeism rate fell from 44.9% in 2022–23 to 34.3% in 2024–25, but it remains above Utah’s 23.8% rate and higher than most nearby schools. Bridge’s results are generally weaker than those at Freedom School, Midland School, North Park School, and Roy School, although it sometimes exceeds Lakeview School or Municipal School in individual results. Overall, the data point to broad schoolwide improvement needs, especially sixth-grade preparation, science instruction, attendance, and class-size support.
