Advantage Arts Academy

Summary:

Advantage Arts Academy is a public charter elementary school located in Herriman, Utah, serving 332 students from kindergarten to 6th grade. While the school has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic students compared to nearby public schools, its academic performance lags behind its counterparts in the Jordan District.

Advantage Arts Academy's academic performance, as measured by state assessments, is significantly lower than the state and district averages across various grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 27.9% of 3rd-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, and just 21% were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 46.7% and 49.1%, respectively. The school's performance in Science for 4th and 5th grades is also below the state averages. Additionally, Advantage Arts Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools and has a 1-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger, indicating it is among the lowest-performing schools in the state.

Interestingly, the nearby public schools in the Jordan District, such as Eastlake School, Butterfield Canyon School, and Herriman School, generally outperform Advantage Arts Academy on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates and higher SchoolDigger rankings. These nearby schools also have lower percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which may contribute to their stronger academic performance.

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.
