How good is East Midvale Elementary?

East Midvale Elementary earns a 6 out of 10 GreatSchools rating, which places it around the average for Utah public elementary schools. GreatSchools does not publish a full proficiency breakdown on its public profile, so treat the rating as a starting point rather than the whole picture. One thing that stands out is class size: the school runs a student to teacher ratio of roughly 17 to 1, lighter than the state average.

East Midvale is a Title I school, which means it receives extra federal funding to support students, and it is one of more than 30 elementary schools in the Canyons School District. Like most schools in the district, the campus has been part of the long bond-funded rebuilding effort. A tour will always tell you more than any single score.

Where East Midvale Elementary feeds

Elementary schools matter for the early years, but families usually want to see the whole path. Under the current Canyons School District pattern, the progression runs:

• Elementary: East Midvale Elementary, grades K to 5
• Middle: Union Middle or Midvale Middle, grades 6 to 8, by address
• High: Hillcrest High School, grades 9 to 12

Midvale is served by two middle schools, and the split between them tracks roughly with State Street, so East Midvale students can route to either Union or Midvale Middle depending on where they live. The lines have shifted as the district rebuilt schools, so confirm your exact boundary before you rely on a feeder. The Canyons School District can check any specific address.

Homes in the East Midvale Elementary boundary

The East Midvale Elementary boundary covers established neighborhoods on the north and east side of Midvale, so the housing stock skews older and more affordable than the newer west-side developments. Expect mostly single-family homes on modest lots, with a mix of townhomes and smaller starter properties, many within a short drive of light rail and I-15.

For buyers, this is one of the more attainable pockets of the central Salt Lake Valley. Because active listings and prices shift month to month, we would rather pull a current, address-specific snapshot for you than quote a range that goes stale quickly.
