It is part of the Washington District, which is ranked 35 out of 98 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, Panorama School has seen a gradual decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from a high of 235 out of 528 Utah elementary schools in 2017-2018 to its current rank of 450 out of 561 in 2023-2024.

Panorama School stands out in several key areas. It has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (58.27% in 2022-2023) compared to the nearby schools, which range from 12.15% to 24.92%. Additionally, the school's academic performance, as measured by RISE test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

While Panorama School faces some challenges, it also has unique strengths. The school has a more diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (25.2%) and Native American (4.84%) students compared to the nearby schools. This diversity could be leveraged to incorporate culturally responsive teaching practices or specialized programs that cater to the needs of the school's unique student body.

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.
