Welcome to Our School

Good Foundations Academy is a K-6 public charter school located in Riverdale, Utah.

Good Foundations Academy offers a unique educational program with an emphasis on character and academic excellence. We opened our doors to approximately 300 students for our inaugural school year in August 2010. We have some of the most outstanding teachers in the region. All of our teachers are certified in Utah or are currently pursuing full certification in an approved program. Our teachers are the heart of our program and we recognize their efforts to achieve and demonstrate academic excellence and their commitment to our program.

It is our distinct pleasure to share with you the State of Utah’s annual school report card for Good Foundations Academy.  Every year, each school receives a report card from the State of Utah. The report card results are based on key metrics including; academic growth, the percentage of students reading on grade level, and test scores. Good Foundations Academy has earned an A grading, the highest possible result which can be attained!

Mission Statement


The purpose of Good Foundations Academy is to provide excellence and fairness in education through a common educational foundation. This will be achieved by successfully teaching a carefully sequenced body of content and skills, and developing a school culture that instills the values of strong character in a democratic society.

GFA has partnered with top-ranked and award-winning Liberty Common School, a charter school located in Fort Collins, Colorado, to bring to Weber County this successful, research-based model of academic excellence. 

Our goal is to provide each student with knowledge, skills, and character through strong parent-teacher-student partnerships.
