Canyon Creek School consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Utah, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's students significantly outperform the district and state averages in RISE assessments for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, 67% of 3rd graders, 60.3% of 4th graders, 64.6% of 5th graders, and 70.1% of 6th graders at Canyon Creek School were proficient or better in RISE English Language Arts, compared to the district averages of 54.1%, 48.4%, 53%, and 51.7%, respectively, and the state averages of 46.7%, 44%, 48.3%, and 47.4%.

While Canyon Creek School has maintained a high level of academic performance, the school's student population is significantly less diverse than the nearby schools and the state average, with a much higher percentage of White students and a lower percentage of minority students. Additionally, the school has a low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating that it serves a relatively affluent community. This socioeconomic advantage may contribute to the school's academic success, but it also raises questions about equity and access for students from lower-income families. The school also has a higher student-teacher ratio compared to the nearby schools, which may impact the level of individual attention and support that students receive.

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.
