What stands out about how Randolph is run
Read from the town’s budget and official records.
Rich School District
Randolph’s K–12 school district, shared with Garden City, Laketown, Woodruff. It’s its own government, with a budget separate from the town’s.
Of the $21,780 per pupil, $12,829 goes to the classroom (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren’t in the per-pupil figure.
Utah districts overall: 42% local, 51% state, 8% federal.
