Summary:
ZIP code 84037 has three middle schools in Kaysville, all serving grades 7–9 within the Davis District, and all three rank well above the midpoint among Utah middle schools. Together, Fairfield Junior High, Centennial Junior High, and Kaysville Junior High enroll 2,786 students and each has a current four-star rating.
Kaysville Junior High is the strongest all-around option based on the current data. It ranks 38th of 217 statewide, has the highest average across the reported assessments at about 58%, and leads the group in mathematics, including 62.7% proficiency in ninth grade. It also has the lowest chronic absenteeism rate, at 11.2%, and the lowest student-teacher ratio, at 24.9:1. Centennial Junior High ranks closely behind at 42nd and has the strongest science results, averaging about 59.7% proficiency. It also leads in seventh-grade English Language Arts and has the lowest reported free/reduced-price lunch percentage. Its chronic absenteeism rate is also low at 11.6%.
Fairfield Junior High is the largest school, with 972 students, and has shown the strongest improvement in statewide ranking, moving from 76th to 39th over three years. It performs especially well in seventh-grade mathematics, where 67.1% of students are proficient, but its ninth-grade mathematics result of 38.4% is a notable area for attention and trails both district and state comparisons. Across all three schools, English Language Arts results are very similar, while mathematics creates the greatest separation. Attendance is a local strength: every school reports lower chronic absenteeism than the district and state, although Fairfield’s rate of 15.4% is higher than the other two schools. Overall, families are choosing among three strong schools with different profiles rather than a clearly weak option.
