Eighth-grade science was another relative weakness, at 48.9%, below both the district and state. There are also several encouraging indicators: chronic absenteeism was 17.2%, lower than the district’s 20.8% and Utah’s 23.8%, while the school’s statewide ranking improved from the 52nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 67th percentile in 2025–2026. Overall, Lakeridge is an improving school with above-state performance, particularly in ELA and science, while families may want to pay closest attention to math support and 8th-grade science.
