Summary:
ZIP code 84115 has two small high schools serving grades 7–12: Innovations Early College High School in the Salt Lake District and Granite Technical Institute in the Granite District. Together, they enroll 243 students and offer different educational models, so families should consider each school’s mission, grade span, and available results rather than relying on one ranking.
Innovations Early College High School serves grades 9–12 and has 157 students. Its early-college focus may appeal to students seeking an academically specialized setting, but the available data show important challenges. The graduation rate is 64.5%, compared with 89.8% statewide, while the dropout rate is 34.2%, compared with 8.5% statewide. Chronic absenteeism is also high at 47.6%, substantially above both the Salt Lake District rate of 29.3% and the state rate of 23.8%. Its recent ranking was at the 7th percentile statewide, although rankings have varied considerably over time. Families considering this school may want to ask about attendance support, credit recovery, graduation planning, and student persistence.
Granite Technical Institute serves grades 7–12 and enrolls 86 students. Its strongest reported feature is attendance: chronic absenteeism was just 5.8%, far below the Granite District rate of 30.6% and the state rate. Granite also exceeded district and state comparisons in both reported science results, with proficiency of 37.8% in 10th grade and 49.3% in 9th grade. Its most recent statewide ranking was at the 59th percentile. Graduation, dropout, English Language Arts, and mathematics results were not fully provided, so families should request those details. Because both schools are small, yearly percentages can change noticeably when only a few students’ outcomes differ.
