Summary:
Elementary schools serving ZIP code 84119 include 10 schools offering grades from prekindergarten through sixth or eighth grade, with about 4,661 students overall. Eight schools are part of Granite District, while American Preparatory Academy - The School for New Americans and Endeavor Hall operate in separate charter districts. The area has considerable variation in achievement and attendance, but overall state rankings are low: no school with a current ranking is above the 29th percentile statewide.
Rolling Meadows School has the strongest overall current profile, ranking at the 29th percentile and combining relatively strong English language arts, mathematics, and science results with chronic absenteeism below the Granite District average. Its fifth-grade science proficiency was 54%, the strongest current exact result in the group. American Preparatory Academy - The School for New Americans has the best attendance, with 22.8% chronic absenteeism, and generally strong upper-grade test results. Taylorsville School shows the clearest improvement in state ranking, rising from the 10th to the 21st percentile over three years. Robert Frost School has standout fifth-grade results, including 44.7% mathematics proficiency, although its overall ranking recently declined.
Attendance is a major concern across the area: the average chronic absenteeism rate is about 33.2%, compared with 23.8% statewide. Endeavor Hall has the highest rate at 47.2% and several reported results below 20%, though missing or suppressed scores should not be interpreted as zero. Harry S. Truman School, Taylorsville School, and Hillsdale School also have especially high absenteeism. Granger School has the lowest current ranking, while Stansbury School and Pioneer School fall in the lower portion of the current rankings. Families should also note that spending figures are from 2018–2019 and are not a current measure of school resources.
