Summary

Jordan Ridge School is a K–6 elementary school in South Jordan, Utah, serving 637 students in the Jordan District in a suburban area with several nearby elementary-school options. It ranks 149th of 563 Utah schools, placing it in the 74th percentile, and holds a 4-star rating. The school’s 20.6% chronic absenteeism rate is below both the district’s 21.9% and Utah’s 23.8%, while its 22.1:1 student-teacher ratio is somewhat high compared with several strong nearby schools.

Jordan Ridge School is one of the strongest schools in its immediate comparison group, ranking second among the listed nearby schools behind Eastlake School. It ranks just ahead of Welby School, a particularly useful comparison because the schools have similar free/reduced-price lunch rates and attendance levels. South Jordan School is another closely matched peer. The school also performs substantially above its district overall, which ranks around the 43rd percentile statewide.

The clearest academic strength is science: every reported 2025–26 science result exceeded state and district performance, including 74% proficiency in 6th grade. Sixth grade is strong across subjects, with 61.5% proficiency in English language arts and 60.3% in mathematics—the highest nearby 6th-grade math result listed. The main concern is 5th grade, especially mathematics, where proficiency fell to 41.4%, below the state’s 45.0%, after reaching 55.0% in 2022–23. Families should also note that the school’s ranking has declined from the 94th–97th percentile range during much of 2015–2021 to the current 74th percentile. Even so, it remains a strong local option, particularly for families valuing science achievement and solid overall performance.

What people are saying

by a parent
Monday, June 8, 2015

My kids are in 2nd grade and afternoon K. I really love this school; they are very organized and thorough. They have done grandparent programs, mother's day programs, daddy/daughter, mother/son activities and each and everyone has been impressive! They are always prompt and their programs run to schedule. My only complaint is because there is such a high parent involvement in this school they can be a little more picky. They discourage parents from bringing in younger siblings when volunteering. I have a toddler @ home so this made it tricky for me to be involved as much as I would have liked. Although, frankly, it probably makes for more effective and focused volunteers. Close Quote
