Summary

Willow School is a public kindergarten-through-sixth-grade elementary school in Grantsville, Utah, serving 425 students in the Tooele District, with nearby elementary options including Twenty Wells Elementary and Grantsville School. The school ranked in the 17th percentile statewide in 2025–2026 and received a one-star rating, consistent with a longer pattern of low statewide rankings. The district itself ranks around the 20th percentile among Utah districts.

Recent academic results are below state averages in every reported subject. Average proficiency was 32.1% in English language arts, 24.2% in mathematics, and 37.7% in science. Mathematics is the clearest concern: only 18.2% of third graders and 24.2% of fourth graders were proficient, and Willow trailed the district in every tested grade. Sixth grade also stands out as a weakness in both ELA, at 25.0%, and mathematics, at 23.3%. Results vary by grade, however; fifth-grade ELA reached 37.8%, fifth-grade mathematics improved to 31.1%, and sixth-grade science was the school’s strongest current result at 41.7%. Mathematics declined sharply after 2023–2024 and has not yet recovered.

The closest comparison, Twenty Wells Elementary, ranked at the 39th percentile and was especially stronger in third- and fourth-grade mathematics, exceeding Willow by more than 30 percentage points in both grades. Higher-ranked Rose Springs School also outperformed Willow across nearly all tested areas, while Willow generally performed better than nearby Overlake School. Chronic absenteeism improved from 41.2% in 2021–2022 to 24.4% in 2024–2025, though nearly one in four students remained chronically absent. The main priorities are strengthening grades 3–4 mathematics, addressing sixth-grade ELA and math, and continuing attendance improvement.
