Grant School is a K–6 elementary school in Murray, Utah, serving 322 students in the Murray District. It is an above-average school statewide, ranking at the 64th percentile, with especially strong attendance and several high-performing grade levels. Grant is located in an area with a wide range of nearby school performance, making local comparisons helpful for families.

Academically, Grant’s strongest recent results are in 3rd-grade mathematics and 5th-grade subjects. Mathematics proficiency reached 69.4% in 3rd grade, while 5th-grade results were 63.5% in English language arts, 59.7% in mathematics, and 71.2% in science. However, performance varies by grade. Fourth-grade mathematics was a weaker area at 39.5%, and 6th-grade English language arts and science were also concerns, at 41.5% and 46.4%.

Grant’s student-teacher ratio also improved to 20.7 to 1.
