Best Public Schools in South Jordan, UT


Summary:

The city of South Jordan, Utah is home to 21 schools serving students from elementary through high school, with the majority being part of the Jordan District. While the district is ranked 52 out of 98 in the state, the data reveals a stark contrast in the performance of schools within the area.

Several schools stand out as high-performing, including Bingham High School, ranked 9th out of 138 Utah high schools, and Elk Ridge Middle School, ranked 32nd out of 210 Utah middle schools. These schools boast impressive test scores, with Bingham High reporting over 50% proficiency in English, Math, and Science.

Additionally, alternative and charter schools in the area, such as Early Light Academy and Mountain West Montessori Academy, generally have lower test scores and rankings compared to the traditional public schools, suggesting they may face unique challenges in delivering high-quality education.
