Summary

Edison School is a public prekindergarten-through-sixth-grade school in Salt Lake City’s Salt Lake District, serving 459 students in a high-need area. The school ranks at the 13th percentile among Utah elementary schools for 2025–2026 and has a one-star rating. Although that statewide standing is low, Edison is the second-highest-ranked traditional district school among the nearby schools reviewed, behind only Mountain View School.

Edison’s academic results are below district and state averages in most tested grades, but they are often stronger than those of nearby traditional schools. Fifth-grade English language arts was a relative strength at 31.6%, the highest reported result among nearby traditional schools, while sixth-grade science reached 50.8%, matching the district rate. Fifth-grade mathematics was the clearest concern, at 16.5% proficient compared with 41.8% in the district and 45.0% statewide. The sixth-grade ELA and mathematics results were suppressed or unavailable, so they should not be interpreted as low scores. Mountain View School generally posted stronger test results and ranked higher statewide, but Edison had lower chronic absenteeism: 33.0% compared with Mountain View’s 38.4%.

Attendance has improved significantly, falling from a peak of 47.7% chronic absenteeism in 2021–2022 to 33.0% in 2024–2025, though Edison remains above both the Salt Lake District rate of 29.3% and Utah’s rate of 23.8%. The student-teacher ratio was 18.7:1, higher than at most nearby district schools. Edison’s subgroup results are uneven: performance for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds ranked at the 52nd percentile, while the English learner subgroup ranked at the 18th percentile. Nearby Wallace Stegner Academy performed much better overall, but its different school model and student population make it an imperfect direct comparison. Overall, Edison appears to be improving from a very low baseline while still facing substantial academic and attendance challenges.
