Summary

Canyon Crest School is a public K–6 elementary school in Provo, Utah, serving 487 students in the Provo District. It is a relatively high-performing school in an area where the district ranks near the middle statewide. Canyon Crest ranked 63rd out of 563 Utah schools for 2025–2026, placing it at the 89th percentile, or roughly among the state’s top 11%. Its student-teacher ratio is 21.4:1, and 20.53% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025.

Academic results are strong across subjects and generally exceed district and state averages. Average proficiency was 63.3% in English language arts, 64.6% in math, and 73.0% in science. Notable strengths include third-grade math at 77.8%, third-grade ELA at 73.5%, and sixth-grade science at 83.3%. The clearest area for improvement is sixth-grade math, at 46.1%—equal to the district average and below the school’s results in earlier grades, though still above the state average. Fifth-grade ELA, at 53.6%, is another relative weak spot. The school’s latest ranking also represents a substantial rebound from 158th place and the 71st percentile in 2024–2025.

Compared with nearby schools, Canyon Crest ranks below Edgemont School but above Rock Canyon School; it is also close to Orchard School and below top-ranked Foothill School. Canyon Crest is especially competitive in science, while sixth-grade math trails several of these peers. Chronic absenteeism is an important concern: 24.0% in 2024–2025, slightly above the district’s 22.3% and Utah’s 23.8%. Overall, the school offers strong, sustained academic performance, with attendance and upper-grade math as the main issues to examine.
