Elk Meadows School is a public elementary school in South Jordan, Utah, serving 648 students in grades K-6. It is part of the Jordan District, which is ranked 48 out of 93 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Elk Meadows School consistently outperforms the Jordan District and the state of Utah in various RISE test subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 57.8% of 3rd graders at Elk Meadows were proficient or better in RISE Mathematics, compared to 47.5% for the Jordan District and 48.6% for the state. The school also has a strong performance among its white student population, ranking 132 out of 408 Utah elementary schools in the 2024-2025 school year with a 3-star rating. However, Elk Meadows has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.7% to 25.4% over the past few years, which is an area of concern.

Elk Meadows School generally outperforms nearby schools in the Jordan District, such as Copper Canyon School, Terra Linda School, and Columbia School, which have significantly lower test scores and statewide rankings. However, there are a few nearby schools, such as Eastlake School, Jordan Hills School, and Golden Fields School, that also demonstrate strong performance, suggesting a concentration of high-quality elementary education options in the South Jordan area.
