Summary:
Zip code 84065 has 16 schools serving elementary through high school grades, including eight elementary schools, four middle schools, one traditional high school, and three alternative schools. Most are part of Jordan District or Summit Academy, with North Star Academy operating under its own district designation. The area offers both neighborhood public schools and charter or specialized options, with substantial differences in achievement, attendance, and grade-level strengths.
Among elementary schools, North Star Academy has the strongest overall assessment results, especially in science and upper-elementary mathematics, along with relatively low chronic absenteeism. Summit Academy - Bluffdale has the highest elementary ranking and strong results across subjects, but its reported 75.1% chronic absenteeism is an important concern to investigate. Riverton School is the leading Jordan District elementary school and has improved steadily. Rosamond School and Southland School also show several strong subject results. Parents may want to look closely at mathematics and attendance at Bluffdale School and Mountain Point Elementary.
The strongest middle-school choices are Fort Herriman Middle and Oquirrh Hills Middle. Fort Herriman has the highest middle-school ranking and low absenteeism, while Oquirrh Hills has the best grade 9 results across English, mathematics, and science. Hidden Valley Middle performs well in grade 9 science but has elevated absenteeism, and South Hills Middle needs improvement particularly in grade 9 mathematics. Riverton High has solid graduation, dropout, and attendance outcomes, although high-school mathematics and science remain weaker areas. Alternative schools serve different student needs, so their results should be compared cautiously.
