Summary

Heartland School is a public elementary school in West Jordan, Utah, serving 403 students in kindergarten through sixth grade within Jordan District. It is smaller than many nearby traditional elementary schools and serves a relatively high-need community, with 66% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25. Its 14:1 student-teacher ratio is one of the lowest among the comparison schools, which may support more individualized attention.

Heartland’s statewide standing has improved, rising from the 8th percentile in the previous two years to the 20th percentile in 2025–26, when it ranked 452nd out of 563 Utah schools. Even with that progress, its academic results remain below district and state averages in most tested areas. Average proficiency was 32.1% in English Language Arts, 27.4% in math, and 35.0% in science. Third-grade ELA is a notable bright spot: 50% of students were proficient, slightly above both the Jordan District and Utah averages. In contrast, upper-grade performance is weaker, especially fifth-grade math at 18.0% and sixth-grade ELA at 20.4%.

Attendance is one of the school’s most urgent challenges. Chronic absenteeism was 42.5% in 2024–25—nearly twice the Jordan District rate of 21.9% and higher than the listed nearby schools, including Westland School at 24.0% and Riverside School at 28.5%. Stronger nearby options such as Viewmont School, Grant School, and Calvin S. Smith School combine higher rankings with lower absenteeism. Overall, Heartland shows encouraging movement and some pockets of strength, but families should expect the school’s main improvement priorities to be attendance, upper-grade literacy and math, and science achievement.
