High Schools in Tooele District

The Tooele District in Utah is home to 5 high schools, serving students in grades 9-12. These schools exhibit a range of academic performance, student demographics, and resource allocation, providing parents with diverse educational options.

Grantsville High School stands out as the top-performing high school in the district, consistently achieving proficiency rates significantly above the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. With a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 18.8, the school's academic success may be attributed to its effective teaching practices and curriculum. In contrast, Tooele High and Tooele Community Learning Center generally have lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state averages.

Wendover High School serves a unique student population, with a predominantly Hispanic (77.78%) and Native American (6.35%) student body. The school spends the most per student at $16,558, significantly higher than the other schools in the district, and has the lowest student-teacher ratio at 13.8, which may contribute to its ability to serve its diverse student population. These findings suggest that the Tooele District could benefit from identifying and sharing best practices from its higher-performing schools to help improve outcomes at the lower-performing schools.
