Summary

Copper Canyon School is a public elementary school in West Jordan serving 497 students in grades K–6 within Jordan District, an area with a mix of family backgrounds and household circumstances.

The school ranks 399th of 563 Utah elementary schools, placing it in the 29th percentile and earning one out of five stars. This is below the statewide midpoint and behind nearby schools such as Jordan Hills School, Golden Fields School, and Welby School, which rank in the 70th percentile. However, Copper Canyon is not the lowest-ranked school locally; it generally performs better than Mountain Shadows School and Terra Linda School. Its ranking has improved from the 19th percentile in 2023–24, although progress has been uneven.

The most important academic concern is a decline in performance through the upper grades. Third-grade results were near district and state levels, and third-grade math was a relative strength at 54.3%. By sixth grade, proficiency fell to 24.7% in English language arts and 23.5% in math; science performance also trailed district and state results. Attendance is another major concern: chronic absenteeism was 34.6%, compared with 21.9% in the district and 23.8% statewide, despite recent improvement. On the positive side, the 19.1:1 student-teacher ratio is among the most favorable nearby. Families may want to ask how staffing is used for grades 4–6 intervention, literacy and math support, attendance outreach, and helping students maintain progress as they advance through the school.
