Summary:
Excelsior Academy is the sole elementary school located in the Excelsior Academy district in Erda, Utah, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 1,397 students. The school has consistently maintained a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and a ranking in the bottom 40% of Utah elementary schools over the past three years, with academic performance generally below the state averages, particularly in Mathematics.
Excelsior Academy's student population is predominantly White (79.6%), with smaller percentages of Hispanic (13.74%), two or more races (4.51%), and other minority groups. The school's socioeconomic status, as indicated by the free and reduced-price lunch eligibility rate of 20.76%, is lower than the state average. Additionally, the school's high student-teacher ratio of 57.5 to 1 may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges.
While Excelsior Academy has shown some strengths, such as performing better than the state average in 4th grade English Language Arts and 8th grade Science, the school's overall low ranking and below-average academic performance suggest opportunities for improvement in areas like curriculum, instructional practices, and targeted interventions to better support student learning and achievement.
