Liberty Elementary School, Salt Lake City

The short answer

Liberty Elementary is a public elementary school serving preschool and grades K to 6 in the Salt Lake City School District, in the Liberty Wells neighborhood just south of Liberty Park. It carries a 4 out of 10 GreatSchools rating and runs as a community learning center, offering extended, wraparound support for a wide range of students. As a Title I school, raw state proficiency runs below the Utah average in that context. Liberty sits on the east side of the district, so its boundary feeds toward Highland High School through a district middle school, with some addresses routing to East High.

How good is Liberty Elementary?

Liberty earns a 4 out of 10 GreatSchools rating. On straight state proficiency it runs below the Utah average, which is common for a Title I school serving a close-knit community where many students are still building English. What the number does not capture is Liberty’s role as a community learning center: it offers extended programming and wraparound family support beyond the standard school day. Families weighing this pocket of the east side often value that support, and the neighborhood setting, alongside the raw scores.

Where Liberty Elementary feeds

Elementary schools matter for the early years, but families usually want the whole path. Liberty sits on the east side of the district, so it does not follow the west-side pattern toward West High. Under the current Salt Lake City School District pattern, the progression generally runs:

• Elementary: Liberty Elementary, preschool and grades K to 6
• Middle: a Salt Lake City School District middle school for grades 7 to 8, by address
• High: Highland High School, with some boundaries routing to East High School

Middle and high assignments here vary by block, and the district is actively reviewing boundaries, so confirm your exact address before you rely on a feeder. The Salt Lake City School District boundary tool checks any specific address. You can also explore the wider market on our Salt Lake City area page.

• Typical: restored bungalows and single-family homes in the $500,000s to $700,000s
