Summary

Bates School is a public elementary school in Ogden, Utah, serving about 690 students in kindergarten through sixth grade. It is part of the Weber District and performs near the middle of Utah elementary schools, ranking in the 50th percentile statewide and earning three stars. Bates is a larger local school with a student-teacher ratio of 22.2:1 and a free/reduced-price lunch rate of 17.83%.

The school’s strongest academic area is science. In 2025–2026, Bates exceeded Weber District and state averages in its overall science results, with particularly strong sixth-grade performance at 65.1%. English language arts is competitive overall, especially in sixth grade, while fourth-grade mathematics is a relative strength at 54.7%. The main academic concern is fifth grade: mathematics proficiency was 35.5%, below both the district and state, and fifth-grade ELA was also weaker than Bates’ results in most other tested grades. The large gap between fourth- and fifth-grade math suggests an area for closer attention.

Compared with nearby schools in the Weber District, Bates trails high-performing Lomond View School, Farr West School, Green Acres School, and Orchard Springs in overall ranking, but it is ahead of Majestic School and slightly ahead of North Ogden School. Lomond View School is an especially useful benchmark because it has a similar lunch-program rate but higher achievement, lower chronic absenteeism, and a lower student-teacher ratio. Bates’ latest chronic absenteeism rate, 20.4%, is better than district and state levels, though about one in five students was still chronically absent.
