Summary

Parkview School is an elementary school in Salt Lake City, Utah, serving 273 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Salt Lake District, which is ranked 55 out of 93 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Parkview School has seen a steady decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 202 out of 528 Utah elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 526 out of 547 in 2024-2025, with a corresponding decrease in its SchoolDigger star rating from 3 to 0 stars.

Parkview School faces several significant challenges. It has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.8% to 39.5% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. The school's academic performance, as measured by RISE test scores, is also significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 25.5% of 3rd graders at Parkview School were proficient or better in RISE Mathematics, compared to 50% for the Salt Lake District and 48.6% for the state. Additionally, Parkview School has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 69.71% to 84.25% over the past few years, indicating a high concentration of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Whittier School, Parkview School's performance is consistently lower, with significantly higher test scores and a higher statewide ranking at Whittier. This suggests that Parkview School may be facing unique challenges that are not shared by its neighboring schools. Addressing the root causes of Parkview School's high chronic absenteeism, low academic performance, and the needs of its student population from low-socioeconomic backgrounds should be a priority for the school and district.
