Summary

Hillsdale School is a PK–6 elementary school in West Valley City serving 548 students in the Granite District, an urban area with several nearby elementary schools for comparison. The school has a 20.6 student–teacher ratio and received a 0-star rating in the latest ranking. Its 2025–26 statewide rank was 542nd out of 563 schools, placing it at the 4th percentile. This low position has been persistent over several years rather than the result of one unusually weak testing year.

Academic results are well below both district and Utah averages in every reported 2025–26 grade and subject. Hillsdale’s average proficiency was approximately 14.3% in English language arts, 19.8% in math, and 26.7% in science. ELA is the clearest weakness, including just 11.6% proficiency in fifth grade; science is relatively stronger, with 29.4% proficiency in fifth grade, but still trails local and statewide results. Nearby schools such as Rolling Meadows School, Taylorsville School, Robert Frost School, and Pioneer School generally post stronger results and rankings. Hillsdale does occasionally outperform individual nearby schools in particular subjects, such as fifth-grade science compared with Granger School.

Attendance is another important concern: chronic absenteeism was 35.4% in 2024–25, above the district’s 30.6% and Utah’s 23.8%, although it has improved substantially from 50.6% in 2022–23. The school’s free/reduced-price lunch measure was 53.28%, indicating a relatively high-need student population, while its student–teacher ratio is typical locally. Historical spending was $8,248 per student in 2018–19, but that figure is too old to describe current resources precisely. Key priorities appear to be improving literacy, strengthening fifth-grade achievement, continuing attendance efforts, and examining practices at stronger nearby schools.

This used to be a decent school, but it has a new administration for 2017-2018. The new administration is driving everything down because they don’t know what they are doing. Close Quote
