Summary
Ogden High is a public school serving grades 10–12 in Ogden, Utah, with 1,127 students in the urban Ogden area and membership in the Ogden City District. Its 2025–26 statewide standing is low—126th of 139 Utah high schools, in the 9th percentile, with a one-star rating. However, the school’s 94.9% graduation rate is a notable strength, exceeding both the district’s 85.4% and Utah’s 89.8%. Its 5.1% dropout rate is also below district and state levels.
The biggest concern is attendance: 44.1% of students were chronically absent in 2024–25, compared with 23.8% statewide. This may limit learning time and help explain why test proficiency remains below Utah averages. In 2025–26, 27.5% of 10th graders were proficient in English language arts, 19.7% in mathematics, and 22.3% in science. Still, Ogden High performed above its district average in all three subjects, and math and science improved from the prior year while ELA declined. The school also had stronger results than nearby Ben Lomond High in every tested subject, including an 11.4-point mathematics advantage.
Comparisons with other nearby schools show a mixed picture. Weber Innovation High School had much stronger attendance, with 16.6% chronic absenteeism, and higher proficiency in ELA, math, and science; its science result was between 30% and 49%. Bonneville High had better ELA, science, and attendance results, but lower graduation and higher dropout rates. Overall, Ogden High appears effective at keeping students on track to graduate, but its most urgent priorities are reducing chronic absenteeism, improving ELA, and raising achievement for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.
