New 2017 grades issued for Wasatch Front high schools

The Utah Board of Education released statewide school grades on Monday, with scores generally down compared to 2016.

Below is a list of new grades for Wasatch Front high schools, listed in order for 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 (latest score in bold.) Find scores for all schools at the board’s State School Grades website.

Statewide, 8 high schools earned an A grade while the number of high schools earning an F grade was 26.

That’s two more Utah high schools than received As last year.

Forty-two high schools received a B, 52 received a C, 16 received a D. Six more schools received an F than did last year.

School grades assign each Utah public school a single letter grade based on student scores on the SAGE computer adaptive test, graduation rates, ACT performance and an elementary literacy test.
