Summary

Riverdale School is a public K–6 elementary school in Ogden, Utah, serving 390 students in a community with moderate economic need. It is part of Weber District. Riverdale ranked 343rd of 563 Utah elementary schools in 2025–26, placing it at the 39th percentile and earning two stars. That is a substantial improvement from 2022–23, when it ranked 487th of 561 schools and was at the 13th percentile, although the school remains in the lower-middle range statewide.

Academic results vary considerably by grade and subject. Fourth grade is the school’s most consistently successful grade, with 52.3% proficiency in both English Language Arts and mathematics; both results exceeded district and state rates. Sixth-grade science is an especially strong area, with 63.7% proficiency compared with 55.5% districtwide and 58.2% statewide. Riverdale’s main academic concerns are third-grade mathematics, fifth-grade ELA, fifth-grade science, and sixth-grade mathematics. Fifth-grade science was 33.4%, notably below both district and state performance. These uneven results suggest that the school has effective practices in some grades that could potentially be extended across the school.

Among nearby traditional Weber District schools, Riverdale has the highest current statewide ranking, ahead of Washington Terrace School, Burch Creek School, and other listed local schools. However, Good Foundations Academy is a much stronger nearby academic outlier, ranking 133rd statewide and at the 76th percentile, though it serves a different student population and operates in a separate district. Riverdale’s chronic absenteeism rate was 24.7%, better than most nearby traditional schools but above both district and state rates. Its student-teacher ratio has improved from 24.4 to 20.5 over two years, a positive staffing trend.
