How good is William Penn Elementary?

William Penn earns an 8 out of 10 GreatSchools rating, which places it above average among Utah public elementary schools. On recent state testing, roughly 60 percent of students scored proficient in reading and 58 percent in math, both above the statewide average for schools serving the same grades.

Class sizes run about 27 students per teacher, on the fuller side for the district, which reflects the school taking on students from a recent nearby closure. It is one of dozens of elementary schools in the Granite School District and runs a Spanish dual language immersion program.

The former Millcreek Elementary area

If you are searching for Millcreek Elementary, also written Mill Creek Elementary, note that Granite closed it at the end of the 2022 to 2023 school year. The closure came out of the Van Winkle and 700 East corridor elementary study, which consolidated several east-side schools. Students from Millcreek Elementary were directed to William Penn, and the Spanish dual language immersion program moved here and merged with William Penn’s existing Spanish program. If you are looking at homes in the old Millcreek Elementary neighborhood, William Penn is the most likely assigned school, but confirm the specific address, since some blocks were routed to other nearby schools.

A local broker’s take

If schools are steering your Millcreek search, the William Penn boundary is a strong option: an above-average campus with a Spanish immersion program that feeds Evergreen Junior High and then Olympus. Because it absorbed the former Millcreek Elementary, the boundary now covers a wider slice of central Millcreek, which is worth keeping in mind when you compare listings. When you find a home you like, we will confirm its exact attendance area before you write an offer, since a single street can separate two different schools.
