Summary:
The Grand District in Utah is home to three schools: Helen M. Knight School (an elementary school), Grand County High (a high school), and Grand County Middle (a middle school). While the district serves a diverse student population, the schools are collectively underperforming compared to state averages, with proficiency rates well below the norm across all grade levels and subject areas.
None of the schools in the Grand District stand out as clear academic leaders, as they all rank in the bottom half of their respective school types statewide. The schools have high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 36.01% at Grand County High to 49.58% at Grand County Middle. Despite higher-than-average spending per student, the schools are still struggling to achieve strong academic outcomes, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving performance.
The student-teacher ratios at the schools are relatively high, ranging from 15.6 at Grand County High to 16.7 at Helen M. Knight School. Additionally, the schools have maintained a consistent ranking within the state over the past few years, with no significant improvements or declines observed. This indicates that the district may need to implement more comprehensive, long-term strategies to drive academic progress and better support the diverse needs of its student population.
