West Field High School

West Field High School is a public school in the Ogden area serving grades 10–12, with 1,257 students in Weber District. For 2025–2026, it ranks 85th of 139 Utah high schools, at the 39th percentile, with a two-star rating. Its reported free- or reduced-price lunch rate is 18.06%, and its student-teacher ratio is 29.9, which is relatively high compared with many nearby schools.

The school’s strongest results are in keeping students attending, enrolled, and on track to graduate. West Field’s 2024–2025 graduation rate was 94.8%, above both Utah’s 89.8% and the district’s 88.5%; its dropout rate was 3.4%, well below the state’s 8.5%. Chronic absenteeism was 15.6%, also considerably better than the state, district, Bonneville High, and Roy High. West Field exceeded Bonneville and Roy in graduation, attendance, dropout, and all three tested subjects. However, Fremont High had stronger graduation, attendance, ELA, and math results, while West Field was slightly better in science.

Academic performance is mixed. In 2025–2026, 49.6% of 10th graders were proficient in English language arts, slightly above the district and state; science proficiency was 37.7%, above the district but below Utah. Mathematics is the clearest concern, with only 21.2% proficient—below both the district’s 26.3% and the state’s 29.4%. This weakness stands out because attendance and graduation are relatively strong, suggesting that improving math instruction, intervention, tutoring, and course support may be more important than broad attendance recovery. Families should also consider the school’s high student-teacher ratio and uneven subgroup results, including a comparatively strong statewide result for special education students. Smaller or specialized options such as Weber Innovation High School and Two Rivers High are less direct comparisons.
