Summary

Oquirrh School is a public K–6 elementary school in West Jordan, Utah, serving 524 students in the Jordan District. The school serves a relatively high-need community, with 59.0% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025. Oquirrh ranked 483rd of 563 Utah elementary schools, placing it in the 14th percentile and earning one star for 2025–2026. This is a meaningful improvement from the 3rd percentile in 2021–2022, but the school remains in the lower tier statewide.

Academic performance is below both district and state averages. In 2025–2026, average proficiency was 24.1% in English language arts, 21.5% in mathematics, and 41.3% in science. Math is the clearest priority: only 16.5% of third graders and 11.9% of sixth graders were proficient, although fifth-grade math improved substantially from 16.2% to 33.3%. Science is a relative strength, with 44.6% proficiency in fifth grade and 43.4% in sixth grade. Results are uneven by grade and subject, suggesting that Oquirrh has shown promising gains in selected cohorts but not yet consistent schoolwide improvement.

Attendance is another important concern. Chronic absenteeism declined from 51.1% in 2021–2022 to 37.3% in 2024–2025, but remained well above the Jordan District rate of 21.9% and the statewide rate of 23.8%. The nearby Westland School, just 0.33 miles away, ranked in the 71st percentile, compared with Oquirrh’s 14th percentile, and had lower chronic absenteeism at 24.0%; however, it also served a less economically disadvantaged student population. Oquirrh currently ranks ahead of nearby Terra Linda School, Rocky Peak Virtual School, and Columbia School. Overall, the most promising improvement areas are attendance, mathematics, and applying the school’s relative science strengths more broadly.
