Who We Are
East Midvale Elementary has been a neighborhood elementary school for over 60 years. Each day, our 400 plus students, preschool through 5th grade, have breakfast in the classroom, engage in academics, receive high quality teaching, and master social and emotional learning skills.
We offer morning and afternoon preschool Monday through Thursday and all day Kindergarten Monday through Friday.
In 2012, we became a Community School partnering with United Way of Salt Lake and many other businesses and organizations to support students and families outside the classroom.
We are the East Midvale Eagles and as we say daily, “Once an eagle, always an eagle!”
