Northlake School

Summary:

Northlake School is an elementary school located in Tooele, Utah, serving grades PK-6 with a student population of 619. The school is part of the Tooele District, which is ranked 69 out of 98 districts in Utah and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Northlake School has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

Northlake School's academic performance lags behind many of the other elementary schools in the Tooele District, such as Twenty Wells Elementary, Rose Springs School, and Middle Canyon School, which all have higher test scores and statewide rankings. The school consistently underperforms the Tooele District and the state of Utah in RISE test scores for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd-grade proficiency rates were 26.8% in ELA and 31.4% in Math, compared to the state averages of 46.7% and 49.1%, respectively.

The school's performance data indicates that addressing the unique needs of its student population, which includes a higher percentage of students from low-income backgrounds and significant achievement gaps between different student groups, will likely require a comprehensive approach. Additionally, the school's relatively low spending per student compared to the state average may be a contributing factor to its academic struggles. While the school's low student-teacher ratio is a positive, it has not been enough to overcome the other challenges the school faces in improving student outcomes.

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.
