Kelsey Peak Virtual Middle

Public, Virtual Grades 7-8

Summary

Kelsey Peak Virtual Middle is a public virtual middle school located in West Jordan, Utah, serving grades 7-8 with a total enrollment of 120 students. It is part of the Jordan School District, which is ranked 49 out of 100 districts in Utah and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Kelsey Peak Virtual Middle has a higher percentage of Hispanic (25.83%) and Pacific Islander (4.17%) students compared to the surrounding schools, which tend to have a higher percentage of White students. However, the school consistently underperforms the Jordan District and Utah state averages in proficiency rates for 8th grade RISE tests in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Additionally, Kelsey Peak Virtual Middle has a lower percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients (21.67%) compared to the nearby traditional public schools, which range from 8.49% to 39.33%. Despite its small class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of 13.8, the school's performance lags behind the state and district averages.

In contrast, nearby traditional public schools like South Jordan Middle and Elk Ridge Middle rank in the top quarter and top 10% of Utah middle schools, respectively. The underperformance of Kelsey Peak Virtual Middle, despite its diverse student population and smaller class sizes, suggests that the virtual learning environment may not be effectively serving the needs of its students. Further investigation into the specific challenges and best practices of virtual middle schools could provide valuable insights to improve the educational outcomes for Kelsey Peak Virtual Middle and similar virtual learning environments.

We had a wonderful experience at Kelsey Peak Middle. My son attended for 2 years. Courses were easy, homework load light. My son still learned the basics in each course. I work at our local brick-and-mortar school where he would have attended if we hadn't gone online. Our favorite part of online school was the freedom to sleep in. Teachers were flexible at Kelsey Peak. Even though my child did not attend many of synchronous class meetings, he was able to watch the recorded classes and complete his work. We really like this school and would recommend it to families where parents help keep their children caught up with homework. (Our child would have fallen behind if we'd left everything to him.) We loved our experience at Kelsey Peak, and appreciate the teachers and staff who work there. =) Close Quote
