District-Level NCES Analysis
American Academy of Innovation operates 1 public schools serving 408 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Utah. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Salt Lake County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $9,605 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 155 Utah districts by per-pupil spending. See how Utah compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 3.6% local, 78.8% state, and 17.6% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 61/100, ranked #37 of 147 in Utah against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 186.5:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 59.8% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 76.4% White, 13.9% Hispanic or Latino, 3.2% Asian across the district's schools.
American Academy of Innovation accounts for 91.4% of all American Academy of Innovation student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of American Academy of Innovation a distant remainder — means American Academy of Innovation-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
American Academy of Innovation student-counselor ratio is 187:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
American Academy of Innovation chronic absenteeism rate is 59.8% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
