I love this school and I'm very sad to be moving, I'm trying to find a school that meets my standards and cant seem to find one like Edgemont. Everyone works together to make sure your child will succeed.

My daughter is in 1st grade and I love this school. The teachers, staff, and principal are all very involved and love working with the children. I do not worry about my daughter when she goes to school at all.

We have really enjoyed Edgemont. The class sizes are small so we know are children are getting more one on one attention. Our children look forward to the 5k run every year as well. This is the second generation of our family go to Edgemont and we hope that it will continue.

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.
