School Name

Uintah Elementary School, located in Ogden, Utah, is the home of the Mustangs.  The school opened in the fall of 1978 and, in response to booming student populations, was remodeled just a few years later to add eight more classrooms.  Today, Uintah Elementary School enrolls approximately 730 students and employs more than 30 full-time teachers.

Principal Quinn Karlinsey and his staff are dedicated to the personal and academic growth of every student at Uintah Elementary School. To aid in this cause, students now have access to use iPads--which the classes of each grade share on a rotational basis--in group settings to build reading, math, and other important skills.

Uintah Elementary School is one of only two schools in the Weber County School District to offer a Chinese immersion program.  Any student entering the first grade may apply, and once students begin the program, they will split time between two classrooms--one English and one Chinese--throughout the remainder of their time at Uintah Elementary School.  When students finish the program, they will have achieved a high proficiency in Mandarin Chinese.  Uintah Elementary School chose Chinese over other languages because Chinese is the most widely spoken language in the world and the third most commonly spoken language in the US.
