Ridge View Elementary

Summary:

Ridge View Elementary is a public elementary school in Herriman, Utah, serving 1,092 students in grades K-6 as part of the Jordan School District. While the school has a higher percentage of Hispanic and Pacific Islander students compared to nearby schools, its academic performance has been steadily declining, with the school's ranking among Utah elementary schools dropping from 341 out of 559 in 2020-2021 to 466 out of 561 in 2023-2024, earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ridge View Elementary consistently underperforms the Jordan District and Utah state averages in RISE test proficiency across all grade levels and subjects, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school's Hispanic students and English Language Learner students perform significantly worse than their peers statewide, ranking in the bottom 25% of Utah elementary schools. Additionally, the school's White students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds also perform poorly, ranking in the bottom 30% of Utah elementary schools.

Compared to nearby schools like Herriman School, Southland School, and Midas Creek School, Ridge View Elementary's academic performance is significantly lower, suggesting that the school may be struggling to effectively serve its diverse student population. The district should prioritize addressing these challenges to improve educational outcomes for all students at Ridge View Elementary.

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.
