Summary

Liberty School is a public elementary school in Salt Lake City’s central urban area, serving 473 students in pre-K through sixth grade at 1090 S Roberta Street as part of the Salt Lake District. The school serves a community with very high economic need, with 98.94% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025.

Academic results are a major concern. In 2025–2026, Liberty ranked 563rd of 563 Utah schools, at the 0th percentile, after several years near the bottom statewide. Proficiency was well below district and state rates in every reported subject and grade. ELA results ranged from 12.5% to 16.3% in grades with exact scores, while fifth grade was reported as 10–30.5%. Mathematics ranged from 7.6% to 16.3%, with fifth grade reported as under 21%; sixth-grade math was especially weak at 7.6%. Science results ranged from 12.5% to 17%, with fifth grade under 20%. Liberty’s low-socioeconomic-status subgroup ranking was also near the bottom statewide—132nd of 139 schools, or the 5th percentile, in 2025–2026.

Attendance is another important challenge: 48.4% of students were chronically absent in 2024–2025, compared with 29.3% in the district and 23.8% statewide. Nearby schools show that outcomes vary widely. Uintah School, about two miles away, ranked 9th statewide, while Open Classroom, Wasatch School, Whittier School, and Washington School also outperformed Liberty. Among higher-need comparisons, Parkview School and Franklin School ranked similarly low, but Liberty’s results still point to urgent priorities: improving attendance, strengthening foundational reading and math, supporting upper grades, and studying practices used by stronger nearby schools such as Emerson School.
