Summary

Copper Hills School is a public elementary school in Magna, Utah, serving 432 students in pre-K through sixth grade as part of the Granite District. The school serves a changing, relatively high-need community, with 45.4% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025. Statewide, Copper Hills ranks 488th out of 563 Utah schools, placing it at the 13th percentile with a one-star rating. The Granite District ranks at the 24th percentile statewide.

The biggest concern is academic performance in third and fourth grade. In 2025–2026, only 10.3% of third graders were proficient in English language arts and 14.9% in math; fourth-grade results were 20.6% in ELA, 13.7% in math, and 16.7% in science. Fifth-grade performance was considerably stronger: 39.3% were proficient in ELA, 36.4% in math, and 40.4% in science. Those fifth-grade results were competitive locally and exceeded the district averages in ELA and math. This grade-level difference suggests that families may want to ask about early literacy and math interventions, attendance supports, and whether successful fifth-grade teaching practices are used in lower grades.

Copper Hills is a middle performer among nearby traditional schools, ranking behind West Valley School and Whittier School, but ahead of most other nearby Granite District schools, including Hillside School, Lake Ridge School, and Magna STEAM Academy. Nearby charter options are mixed: Wallace Stegner Academy West Valley ranks substantially higher, while Ascent Academies of Utah - West Valley also ranks above Copper Hills. Chronic absenteeism improved from 40.3% to 31.5% over three years but remains above Utah’s 23.8%. The student-teacher ratio has also risen to 21:1, making class size and consistent attendance important questions for families.
