Summary:
Zip code 84040 has one listed public school, Mountain View School, an elementary school serving Pre-K through sixth grade in Layton. The school enrolls 696 students and is part of the Davis District. Because no middle schools, high schools, or alternative schools are included in this ZIP-code listing, Mountain View is the only local school available for comparison.
Mountain View has several encouraging academic results. In 2025–2026, its average mathematics proficiency was about 52%, above both the Davis District average of 48% and Utah’s average of 46%. Fifth grade was the standout, with 65.2% of students proficient in math and 60.8% proficient in science—well above district and state results in both subjects. The school also exceeded the statewide average in three of four reported ELA grades and all four math grades. Chronic absenteeism was 18.3%, nearly the same as the district’s 18.6% but better than Utah’s 23.8%.
Performance is not equally strong across every grade. Sixth-grade math was the clearest concern at 39.2%, down from 49.5% the previous year, while fourth-grade science and some ELA results were below district or state comparisons. The school’s statewide ranking remained above the midpoint, at the 59th percentile in 2025–2026, but declined from the 66th percentile the year before; it received three stars in each of the past three years. Families should also note the 21.7-to-1 student-teacher ratio and that the reported $6,672 spending figure comes from 2018–2019, making it outdated for judging current resources. Overall, Mountain View appears to be a solid elementary option, with especially strong fifth-grade results and opportunities to improve consistency across grades.
