Cyprus High consistently underperforms compared to the Granite District and the state of Utah in standardized test scores across all subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 22.4% of 10th-grade students at Cyprus High were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 32.1% in the Granite District and 44.6% statewide. The school has also maintained a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is among the lowest-performing high schools in Utah. When comparing Cyprus High to other nearby high schools in the Granite School District, such as Taylorsville High, Kearns High, and Granger High, Cyprus High consistently underperforms in academic metrics and school rankings.

The high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds at Cyprus High, ranging from 44.87% to 50.47% over the past three school years, suggests the school may face significant challenges in terms of resources, staffing, and support for its students. These factors could contribute to the school's consistently poor academic performance. However, the data indicates an opportunity for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes at Cyprus High, as identifying and addressing the root causes of the school's challenges could potentially lead to meaningful improvements in the future.

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.
