Summary

Taylorsville High is a large public school in Taylorsville, Utah, serving grades 9–12 and 2,685 students in the Granite District, where 44.54% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25. The school ranked in the 15th percentile statewide in 2025–26, reflecting low overall performance, although it has improved from the 8th percentile in 2021–22. Its size and student-teacher ratio of 26.3 may make individualized support more challenging.

Academically, Taylorsville High is a relative leader among nearby traditional Granite District high schools. It exceeded Granger High, Kearns High, and Cottonwood High in all six reported 2025–26 Aspire Plus subject-grade comparisons. Ninth grade is a relative strength, especially math, with 32.3% proficiency. However, results remain below Utah averages, and 10th-grade math is a significant weakness: only 15.6% of students were proficient. Smaller specialty schools such as Vanguard Academy and Academy for Math Engineering & Science posted much higher results, though they are not directly comparable.

The most urgent concerns are attendance and staying on track to graduate. Chronic absenteeism reached 38.0% in 2024–25, compared with 30.6% in the district and 23.8% statewide. Graduation declined to 79.6%, while the dropout rate rose to 19.5%. These trends suggest that attendance monitoring, credit recovery, and early intervention should be priorities. A notable strength is support for English Language Learners, whose effectiveness ranking reached the 52nd percentile. Overall, Taylorsville High appears stronger than several nearby large traditional schools but still faces substantial challenges in achievement, attendance, and completion.
