Summary:
The 84029 zip code area in Tooele, Utah is home to 5 schools serving grades K-12, all part of the Tooele School District. While the district as a whole faces challenges, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, a few standout schools in the area demonstrate strong academic performance, particularly Twenty Wells Elementary, which excels on state assessments. However, the other schools in the data set generally lag behind district and state averages, suggesting potential areas for improvement in curriculum, instruction, and support for struggling students.
Key metrics across the schools reveal some concerning trends, such as high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 23.8% to 25.4%, which may be contributing to lower academic performance. Graduation rates at Grantsville High School are slightly below the state average at 88.8%, while dropout rates are higher at 9.4%. Funding and resource allocation also vary, with per-student spending ranging from $6,716 to $9,773 and student-teacher ratios from 18.0 to 25.4.
Despite these challenges, the data set highlights the strengths of Twenty Wells Elementary and Grantsville Junior High, which demonstrate high academic performance on state assessments. By addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism, ensuring equitable distribution of resources, and implementing targeted interventions, the Tooele School District can work to support the success of all students in the 84029 zip code area.
