Summary

Hillsdale School is an elementary school located in West Valley City, Utah, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 569 students. Unfortunately, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-20% of Utah elementary schools over the past several years, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hillsdale School significantly underperforms compared to the Granite District and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 8.2% of 6th-grade students were proficient or better in RISE Mathematics, compared to 24.1% in the Granite District and 36.4% statewide. The school also has extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.8% to 36.3% over the past few years, which is well above the district and state averages. Additionally, Hillsdale School has a very high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 76.63% to 84.52% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

The nearby Granger School, Taylorsville School, and Stansbury School generally perform better than Hillsdale School across academic metrics, with higher proficiency rates and lower chronic absenteeism. However, these schools still struggle compared to state averages, indicating broader challenges within the Granite District. Addressing the unique challenges faced by Hillsdale School and the broader district will be crucial in improving educational outcomes for the students.

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
