Summary

South Clearfield School is an elementary school located in Clearfield, Utah, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 717 students. It is part of the Davis School District, which is ranked 42 out of 93 school districts in Utah and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, South Clearfield School has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

The data suggests that South Clearfield School is struggling academically, with low test scores, high chronic absenteeism, and a high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. For example, in 2024-2025, only 38.7% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in RISE/Mathematics, compared to 52% for the Davis District and 48.6% for the state. Additionally, the school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20% to 39.3% over the past few years, which is much higher than the state average.

When comparing South Clearfield School to the nearby schools within the same district, it consistently performs worse on test scores and has higher chronic absenteeism rates. For example, Ellison Park School, which is also in the Davis District, has significantly higher test scores and a lower chronic absenteeism rate compared to South Clearfield School. This indicates that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the underlying factors contributing to the poor academic performance, such as attendance, student engagement, and support for students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
