How good is Oquirrh Elementary?

Oquirrh Elementary earns a 6 out of 10 GreatSchools rating, about average to slightly above among Utah elementary schools. That said, the reported state testing proficiency figures on public aggregators run lower than the overall rating would suggest, so treat the two together as a mixed picture rather than a single verdict. The exact testing year is not clearly labeled, so read the proficiency numbers as recent rather than precise.

Class sizes are on the smaller side, at about 17 students per teacher, lighter than many nearby schools. A rating is only one input, so tour the campus and ask about specific programs if this area is on your list.

Where Oquirrh Elementary feeds

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

• Elementary: Oquirrh Elementary, grades K to 6
• Middle: West Jordan Middle School, grades 7 to 9
• High: West Jordan High School, grades 10 to 12

There is a documented wrinkle here: some addresses in the Oquirrh area have been zoned to Joel P. Jensen Middle rather than West Jordan Middle. Because of that, and because lines shift as the city grows, confirm your exact boundary before you rely on a feeder. The Jordan School District boundary tool checks any specific address. You can also explore the wider market on our West Jordan area page.

Homes in the Oquirrh Elementary boundary

The Oquirrh Elementary boundary sits on the established east side of West Jordan, so the housing stock skews older and more settled than the newer west side. Expect a mix of single-family homes, townhomes, and starter homes, many at a more approachable price point than newer construction elsewhere in the city. Prices change over time, so treat any figure as a snapshot.

Because the boundary covers a range of neighborhoods, the mix of active listings shifts month to month. Rather than quote a range that goes stale quickly, we would rather pull a current, address-specific snapshot for you.

A local broker’s take

If schools are steering your West Jordan search, the Oquirrh Elementary boundary is worth a look for its smaller class sizes and approachable pricing on the east side of the city. The one thing to nail down early is the middle school assignment, because the Oquirrh area has a boundary quirk that routes some addresses to Joel P. Jensen Middle instead of West Jordan Middle. When you find a home you like, we will confirm its exact attendance area before you write an offer, since that line can matter for years.
