This is a great school however some of the teachers are not that great. They have degraded my daughter repeatedly. But they also have great teachers who have helped my daughter break out of her shell. All and all I like this school.

I'm not a parent but I was a student in Mt.Jordan and I have to rate this school a one. After going to so many great schools in Florida ( Southwest and Biscayne Elementary) this has to be the poorest effort to give a decent education compared to other schools around the nation. There are not enough funds, administration is not up to date and most of the teachers ( with exceptions of course) are in my opinion not suitable to teach this new generation of us students.

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 goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
