Growth continued to be the watchword for Jordan School District during the 2004-05 school year. Compared to the previous year, enrollment grew by nearly 1,300 students, staff increased by 158, an additional 433,000 meals were served, and buses traveled 100,000 more miles. The District has opened or rebuilt 10 new school buildings since 2003 with two more to be added in fall 2005. Despite the challenges this growth brings, dedicated employees, students and parents continue to excel in educating students-test scores are on the rise, dropout rates are on the decline and graduating seniors are earning more scholarships than ever.

On these pages you'll find important details about the finances, programs, staff and students of Jordan School District. In addition, individual school U-PASS school report cards are available by clicking on the Test Results link. These report cards, prepared by the Utah State Office of Education, show test scores, class sizes, educational level of staff and other important information for each school in the District.
