Summary

Mountain View School is an elementary school located in Layton, Utah, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 687 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.

Mountain View School consistently performs above the state and district averages in RISE assessments for Mathematics, Science, and English Language Arts across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 3rd-grade Mathematics proficiency rate was 58.6%, compared to the Davis District's 52% and the state's 48.6%. The school's performance in Science is also noteworthy, with 6th-grade students achieving a 61.1% proficiency rate, higher than the district's 57.9% and the state's 56.5%. However, the school has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20% to 25.2% over the past few years, which is higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Mountain View School has increased from 17.77% in 2021-2022 to 23% in 2023-2024, indicating a growing population of economically disadvantaged students.

Compared to nearby schools, Morgan School and Lincoln School, Mountain View School outperforms them in academic assessments, particularly in Mathematics and Science. However, some nearby schools, such as Adams School, also demonstrate strong academic performance. The chronic absenteeism rate at Mountain View School is consistently higher than the nearby schools, which may indicate a need for further investigation into the underlying causes and potential interventions to address this issue.

Communication from the school does not happen and trying to get teachers to respond is difficult at best. Their scholastic program is extremely slow. I have two children that are basically learning the same material for two years. Look else where for quality education. Close Quote

Mountain View Elementary School is an exceptional school! It's teachers are top notch, there is a diverse population of students and faculty, and it has a wonderful, upbeat and exciting atmosphere! The PAL and Spectrum Program is also phenomenal, with the most dedicated teachers I've ever encountered. The PTA is very active and is integral to the success of the school and the students who are lucky enough to attend Mountain View. Close Quote
