Summary:

Silver Ridge Elementary is a public elementary school located in Farr West, Utah, serving 625 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the Weber District, which is ranked 60 out of 98 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Silver Ridge Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (92.8%) compared to nearby schools, its academic performance, as measured by RISE test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, with a ranking between 315-380 out of 551-561 schools over the past 4 years. Additionally, Silver Ridge Elementary has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (15.84% in 2022-2023), which is lower than some of the nearby schools like Orchard Springs (33.54%) and Majestic School (26.2%).

The consistent underperformance of Silver Ridge Elementary compared to the district and state averages suggests that the school may be facing systemic challenges in effectively educating its student population. The stark contrast between Silver Ridge's performance and the high-performing nearby schools like Lomond View and Plain City provides valuable insights and opportunities for improvement.

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.
