How good is Magna Elementary?

Magna Elementary earns a 2 out of 10 GreatSchools rating. On recent state testing, roughly 13 percent of students scored proficient in math and 17 percent in reading, both below the statewide average. Those figures track a central, working-class part of Magna facing real economic headwinds more than any single classroom.

A single rating misses a lot about a school’s teachers, culture, and programs. Magna Elementary, home of the Bulldogs, has leaned into a STEAM focus as the Magna STEAM Academy, with class sizes near 24 per teacher. If schools are central to your search, a visit and a look at the STEAM programming will tell you more than the number alone.

Where Magna Elementary feeds

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

The 2025 reconfiguration moved sixth grade up to the junior highs and ninth grade up to the high schools, and the reopening of Brockbank redrew the line between the two Magna junior highs. Confirm your exact boundary before you rely on a feeder. The Granite School District boundary tool checks any specific address. You can also explore the wider market on our Magna area page.

Homes in the Magna Elementary boundary

The Magna Elementary boundary covers older, central Magna, one of the more affordable communities in Salt Lake County. Expect established single-family homes on walkable streets near the historic Main Street, with some newer construction on the edges as the west side continues to grow.

Because the mix of active listings shifts month to month, we would rather pull a current, address-specific snapshot for you than quote a range that goes stale quickly. Magna remains a strong value for buyers who want more house for the money within reach of the valley.
