Summary:
ZIP code 84405 has eight elementary schools serving grades K–6 or PK–6, with about 3,456 students across traditional, charter, and online options in the Ogden-area community. School sizes vary widely, from 52 students at Weber Online K-6 to 809 at South Weber School. The schools also differ considerably in academic results, attendance, and statewide rankings, so families may want to compare individual schools rather than rely only on districtwide averages.
Good Foundations Academy has the strongest overall academic results, with an approximate proficiency average of 59.9% and especially high science scores. It exceeded Utah comparisons in 10 of 11 reported subject-grade combinations and ranked in the 76th statewide percentile. South Weber School is a close academic second, averaging about 58.3%, while also having the strongest current ranking among the listed schools, very low chronic absenteeism, and substantial ranking improvement over two years. Its main weakness is sixth grade, particularly mathematics. Riverdale School is a middle-performing option with improving rankings and an approximate overall proficiency average of 44.5%.
Burch Creek School, H Guy Child School, Roosevelt School, and Washington Terrace School generally post lower proficiency rates and statewide rankings, with Washington Terrace having the lowest approximate academic average. Attendance is an important difference: Roosevelt’s chronic absenteeism is 40.7%, compared with 10.6% at South Weber. Weber Online K-6 reports only 2.1% chronic absenteeism, but its small enrollment and suppressed or range-based test results make direct comparisons unreliable. Historical spending and student-teacher ratios do not show a simple relationship with current achievement.
