We moved here from SLC and tried attending a shool in our boudary. She became very withdrawn and very unlike herself. We then transferred her to Geneva and she absolutely loves it and is back to herself again with great grades. The first grade teacher she has is awesome and takes the time with new students to make sure they are comfortable and understand what is being asked of them. We just moved to another area and she is not in the boudaries of Geneva but will ask for another transfer year after year! They are awesome!

It's a great environment for my children. As international students they have all support from teachers and principal. There is no discrimination by the fact that they are from another country. Actually my children adopted Geneva School as they second home.

We moved from Murray where I really loved my son's school. At first I didn't like the change, but my kids came home learning so much and really enjoying their school, so now we love it!

This school has the best most current teacher who really truly love the ethnic and Social Economic diversity in this school. They are always working to be teaching using researched based practices. The amazing miracles that teachers are able to produce in this school are wonderful. This is truly a great school for the students who are in it.

This school is amazing. Especially the fourth grade teachers.

The school in itself is excellent, the parent involvement is not great. The teachers are excellent. One bad note-- administration is not great. Did not handle at all, what I viewed to be a very serious problem. So I guess you take the good with the bad.

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.
