Summary:
The 84041 zip code area of Layton, Utah is home to 11 elementary schools, all part of the Davis School District. These schools serve students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 8.37% at Sand Springs School to 47.44% at Vae View School.
Among the standout schools in the area are Sand Springs School, which has consistently ranked in the top 25% of Utah elementary schools, and Ellison Park School, which has ranked in the top 33% in recent years. These high-performing schools boast strong test scores, particularly in science, and relatively low rates of students receiving free/reduced lunch. In contrast, Lincoln School, King School, Vae View School, and Crestview School appear to be the lowest performing, with very low test scores and high rates of students receiving free/reduced lunch.
Across the district, there is a significant performance gap, with some schools ranking in the top 25% of Utah elementary schools while others fall in the bottom 40%. This variability suggests opportunities for the Davis School District to learn from its highest-performing schools and implement best practices more broadly. Additionally, the uniformly high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.8% across all schools is a concern that likely contributes to the performance gaps observed.
