Our school is still struggling with trust in leadership but as parents we are trying to support in any way we can. We have amazing teachers! About Sept. 2nd's comment...a parent would not know if we failed or not because the district is posting scores at the end of Sept. Where is the trust? It's gone!

Great school! The school had been labled a failing school but the current administration, which has taken a lot of heat, now has the school off of the failing list. The 'program' is obviously working. Many parents find change difficult but that does not mean change is wrong.

The current administration stifles learning and has no disciplinary skill. This is creating a dangerous environment. Poor leadership creates poor schools. There are great teachers here who are not allowed to use their creativity to teach and adapt the learning to each student. At all costs, stick to 'the program'. This is obviously not working.

I student taught and substituted here. It is a wonderful school. The principal is great and the teachers are very experienced and dedicated. Their focus is always the children and they have wonderful reading programs.

About the tests


In 2009-2010 Utah used the Utah Criterion-Referenced Test (CRT) to test students in grades 1 through 11 in language arts, in grades 1 through 7 in math, in grades 4 through 9 in science and upon completion of certain courses in grades 8 through 11. The results displayed on GreatSchools profiles are for all grades combined for each subject. The CRT is a standards-based testing program, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Utah. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
