Summary:

The school is part of the Ignite Entrepreneurship Academy District, which is ranked 70 out of 98 districts in Utah and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ignite Entrepreneurship Academy's academic performance, as measured by RISE test scores, is consistently lower than the state and nearby school averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate was 27.8%, compared to the state average of 46.7%. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, with a ranking of 395 out of 561 schools in 2023-2024 and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Additionally, Ignite Entrepreneurship Academy has an extremely low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 0.55% to 1.07% over the past three years, which is significantly lower than the nearby Alpine District public schools, which range from 6.2% to 25.58% free/reduced lunch recipients.

The relatively high student-teacher ratio at Ignite Entrepreneurship Academy, ranging from 26.7 to 28.8 over the past three years, may be a contributing factor to the school's academic underperformance and could indicate challenges in attracting and retaining qualified teachers. These factors suggest the need for a closer examination of the school's practices, policies, and resource allocation to address these concerns and better serve the needs of all students.

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.
