Roy School

Summary:

Roy School is a public elementary school serving grades K-6 in the Weber District in Utah, with 503 students. Over the past several years, Roy School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Roy School's academic performance, as measured by RISE test scores, is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 25-34% of Roy School students were proficient in English Language Arts and 15-38% were proficient in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 44-48% and 35-50%, respectively. The school has a high percentage of students from low-income families, with around 50% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which is significantly higher than the nearby schools, such as Municipal School, Midland School, and Lakeview School, which range from 21-46% free/reduced-price lunch recipients.

Despite the school's current challenges, the diversity of the student population and the presence of nearby higher-performing schools suggest that there may be opportunities for Roy School to learn from its peers and implement strategies to improve academic outcomes for its students. Addressing the school's consistent low performance and the significant challenges it faces in providing the necessary resources and support to help its students succeed academically could be a key focus for the school and the Weber District.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
