Stansbury School consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of Utah elementary schools based on the statewide SchoolDigger ranking, with a 0-star rating in most years. The school's proficiency rates in RISE assessments for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. However, the school performs relatively better in serving its Hispanic and English Language Learner student populations, ranking in the top half of Utah elementary schools for these subgroups. Nearby schools in the Granite School District, such as Taylorsville School, Philo T. Farnsworth School, and Monroe School, also perform poorly on the statewide rankings, with most of them ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Utah elementary schools.

In contrast, the public charter school American Preparatory Academy - The School for New Americans, located near Stansbury School, outperforms Stansbury School and the Granite District on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates in RISE assessments. To address the challenges faced by Stansbury School, the school and district should consider implementing targeted interventions, exploring best practices from higher-performing schools within the district, and collaborating with the charter school to identify and share effective instructional practices.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
