District-Level NCES Analysis
Ogden Preparatory Academy operates 1 public schools serving 1,022 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 Weber County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $8,751 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 155 Utah districts by per-pupil spending. See how Utah compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 0.9% local, 78.4% state, and 20.7% 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 66/100, ranked #24 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.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 1 schools offering Advanced Placement (1 AP courses district-wide), a 507:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 39.2% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 76.6% Hispanic or Latino, 18.7% White, 1.2% African American across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Ogden Preparatory Academy, enrolling 1,014 students (100% of the district's total enrollment).
Ogden Preparatory Academy accounts for 99.2% of all Ogden Preparatory Academy student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Ogden Preparatory Academy a distant remainder — means Ogden Preparatory Academy-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.
Ogden Preparatory Academy has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 52.2% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Areas above 75% eligibility receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Ogden Preparatory Academy student-counselor ratio is 507:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
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 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.
Ogden Preparatory Academy chronic absenteeism rate is 39.2% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)
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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
