District-Level NCES Analysis
Thomas Edison operates 2 public schools serving 1,216 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Utah. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary 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 Cache County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $7,789 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 16 of 156 Utah districts by per-pupil spending. See how Utah compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 1.9% local, 94.6% state, and 3.4% 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 37/100, ranked #114 of 147 in Utah against a state average of 50, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.

That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Thomas Edison a distant remainder — means Thomas Edison-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: elementary. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
Thomas Edison student-counselor ratio is 503:1 — 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.
Thomas Edison chronic absenteeism rate is 21.3% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
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 Variation between sub-units within Thomas Edison is typically wider than the Thomas Edison-aggregate figure suggests.
Thomas Edison has 2 schools, including 2 elementary. Total enrollment is 1,216 students.
