Summary:
The city of Provo, Utah is home to 14 elementary schools that serve students from kindergarten through 6th grade. These schools are part of the Provo District, which is ranked 39 out of 98 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. While the district as a whole has room for improvement, a few standout schools emerge from the data.
Edgemont School consistently ranks among the top 25-26 elementary schools in Utah, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. It boasts exceptional test scores, with the majority of students scoring proficient or better in core subjects. Rock Canyon School and Canyon Crest School also rank in the top 100 elementary schools in the state, with 4-star ratings and strong academic performance. On the other hand, Timpanogos School, Spring Creek School, Franklin School, and Treeside Charter School have the lowest rankings and ratings among the schools in the data set.
The data reveals a wide range of academic performance across the Provo elementary schools, with the top-performing schools significantly outpacing the lower-performing ones on standardized tests. Additionally, there appears to be a correlation between a school's socioeconomic status and its academic performance, with schools serving higher percentages of students from low-income families tending to have lower test scores. The Provo District as a whole has opportunities for improvement, as none of the schools in the data set are ranked in the top 20 elementary schools in Utah, suggesting the need to learn from the practices of the highest-performing schools in the state.
