Summary

Copper Hills School is an elementary school located in Magna, Utah, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 435 students. As part of the Granite School District, which is ranked 70 out of 93 districts in the state, Copper Hills School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 10 years.

One of the key issues at Copper Hills School is its high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.8% to 35.7% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, the school's test scores on the RISE assessments for Math, Science, and English Language Arts are consistently lower than the Granite District and Utah state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 16.6% of 3rd graders at Copper Hills were proficient or better in Math, compared to 37.1% in the district and 48.6% statewide. The school also has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 47.72% to 60.33% over the past few years, suggesting a high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

When comparing Copper Hills School to the nearby schools in the Granite District, such as Whittier School, West Valley School, and Gearld Wright School, it becomes clear that Copper Hills is one of the lower-performing schools in the area, with higher chronic absenteeism rates and lower test scores. These challenges may be reflective of broader systemic issues within the district that need to be addressed.
