Summary

Granger High in West Valley City is a large public school serving grades 8–12 in the Granite District, with 3,267 students and a higher-need student population than several nearby traditional high schools. Its size is important context: it is larger than Taylorsville High, Hunter High, and Kearns High, and much larger than nearby specialty and charter schools. About 58.59% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025. While the district ranked in the 24th statewide percentile, Granger ranked in the 4th percentile among Utah high schools in 2025–2026, with 0 stars.

Academic performance is the school’s biggest concern. In 2025–2026, proficiency was 10.1% in grade 10 math and 11.1% in grade 9 math, while ELA proficiency was 23.2% and 16.7%, respectively. Science was the strongest subject, at 22.2% in grade 10 and 24.4% in grade 9, and it has improved steadily over the past three years. However, recent ELA and math results declined from 2024–2025. Granger’s 2024–2025 graduation rate was 73.4%, below the rates at Taylorsville High (79.6%), Hunter High (84.5%), and Kearns High (82.8%). Its dropout rate was 25.8%, and chronic absenteeism was 40.3%, both higher than those comparison schools.

There are some encouraging signs: chronic absenteeism improved from 45.8% the previous year, science results have risen in both tested grades, and English learner subgroup effectiveness improved substantially. Nearby Vanguard Academy provides an interesting contrast, posting much stronger test results and only 9.3% chronic absenteeism, although it serves just 623 students and has a different school model. Overall, Granger appears to need coordinated improvement in attendance, student persistence, graduation pathways, mathematics, and ELA, while building on the practices showing promise in science and English learner support.
