Summary

East Layton School is a public elementary school in Layton, Utah, serving about 510 students from pre-K through sixth grade in the Davis District. Located near several other district elementary schools, it is an improving, upper-middle-performing school statewide, with a three-star rating and a 61st-percentile ranking—221st out of 563 Utah elementary schools.

East Layton currently performs better than most nearby schools, including Layton School, Whitesides School, King School, Mountain View School, and Morgan School. It trails the strongest local performers, Adams School and Creekside School. Third grade is East Layton’s standout area: 67.7% of students were proficient in English language arts and 68.3% in mathematics, well above district and state levels. Science is another relative strength, with proficiency above the state average in fourth, fifth, and sixth grades. Results are more mixed in upper-grade English and mathematics, particularly sixth-grade math, where proficiency was 32.2%. That was a substantial improvement from 18.9% the previous year but remains below district performance.

The school’s statewide ranking rose from the 47th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 61st percentile most recently, although it remains below its mid-2010s rankings. Attendance is an encouraging part of the picture: chronic absenteeism declined from 28.9% in 2021–2022 to 17.8% in 2024–2025, slightly below the district rate and well below Utah’s rate. East Layton’s student-teacher ratio was 19.7 to 1, a moderate figure compared with nearby schools. Overall, the school offers solid and improving performance, with particularly strong third-grade academics and science, while continued attention to sixth-grade mathematics and consistency across grades could help it close the gap with Adams and Creekside.
