Summary

Orchard School is a PK–6 elementary school in North Salt Lake serving 581 students in the Davis District, in an area with many nearby elementary schools offering a wide range of academic results. The school has a 20.6:1 student–teacher ratio, a three-star rating, and ranks 281st of 563 Utah schools, placing it at the 50th percentile for 2025–2026. Its statewide standing has declined from the 72nd–80th percentile range in the mid-2010s but has been relatively stable near the statewide middle over the past two years.

Orchard School’s clearest academic challenges are English language arts and fourth-grade mathematics. In 2025–2026, ELA proficiency ranged from 38.3% in third grade to 45.9% in fourth grade, below the Davis District in every tested grade. Math was more mixed: fourth grade was 38.3%, but fifth grade reached 50.6% and sixth grade 45.7%, both above district averages. Science is the school’s strongest subject, averaging about 57.2% and reaching 63.8% in sixth grade, above both district and state results. Upper-grade math and science are generally more competitive than lower-grade performance, suggesting that early literacy and foundational math deserve particular attention.

Attendance is improving: chronic absenteeism fell from about 29% in each of 2021–2022 through 2023–2024 to 22.7% in 2024–2025, though it remains above the district’s 18.6%. Nearby Muir School, Valley View School, and Odyssey School report lower absenteeism and stronger overall academic results. Boulton School and Wasatch Peak Academy also generally outperform Orchard School, while Foxboro School, Woods Cross School, and Adelaide School generally perform below it. Overall, Orchard School is a middle-performing school with encouraging science and upper-grade results, but substantial room to improve literacy, fourth-grade math, and attendance.
