Utah Fits All students by county, 2025-26
Odyssey, the company that manages Utah Fits All for the Utah State Board of Education, must report to the Legislature how many scholarship students come from each county. Its report for the 2025-26 program year counts approved students by Utah county of residence. In the report’s words, the numbers “are based on the zip code of the student address entered on the application.”

Source: Odyssey, Utah Fits All Legislative Report for the 2025-2026 Program Year, as published by Utah News Dispatch, section X. The report suppresses counties with fewer than 10 scholarship students; Beaver, Daggett and Rich are shown as suppressed and Piute County does not appear, so those rows are left out here. The report’s table also lists two non-Utah county names (Otero and Pennington) as suppressed rows; we show only the Utah rows. Students living out of state on a parent’s active military orders are not counted in the table. The published county rows add up to 14,474 of the report’s 14,522 students; the shares are our arithmetic.
There is no county table for 2026-27 yet. On June 17, 2026, Odyssey said it had “issued awards to over 18,700 students for the 2026-2027 program year,” so the next report’s numbers are likely to look different.
What the county numbers do and don’t tell you
- They show where Utah Fits All families lived, not how many children need help, how many have an IEP, or where tutoring is available. The report has no county breakdown by disability or by spending.
- The Wasatch Front dominates. Salt Lake, Utah, Davis and Weber counties together account for 11,004 of the 14,522 students, about 75.8% (our arithmetic).
- Tutoring is a small slice of statewide spending. Across the whole state in 2025-26, the report lists $2,696,043.28 of “Tutoring Services” out of $94,733,369.85 in total spending. Those are 2025-26 figures, not a guide to what any family should spend.
How online tutoring works anywhere in Utah
Every session is live and one-to-one. Your child and the teacher work together by video on the skill your child is practicing, whether you live in Logan, Tooele, Price or Kanab. Our teachers are certified in special education, and Special Ed Resource has been teaching children who learn differently since 2014, with more than 100,000 sessions behind us.
What a family needs is simple:
- a computer with a webcam and a reliable internet connection;
- a quiet spot where your child can see the screen and keep their materials close;
- for younger children, an adult nearby at the start of sessions.
Most Utah households (93.4%) have a broadband internet subscription, according to the Census Bureau’s 2020–2024 American Community Survey, but that varies by county; in San Juan County the figure is 72.4%. If your internet is patchy, tell us during the consultation so we can talk it through honestly.
We tutor in reading and dyslexia, math, ADHD and executive function and academic support for autistic learners. We provide academic tutoring only, not therapy, speech services, evaluations or diagnosis. We work with children from age 3½, but Utah Fits All covers kindergarten through grade 12 only, so tutoring for a preschooler would be paid privately. We’ll confirm a teacher and a schedule with you before anything starts; we don’t promise a time slot before checking.
County guides
Each county page carries its own local facts: the school districts there, who evaluates children, and local options.
- Salt Lake County: Five separate school districts, how to tell which one evaluates your child, and local reading-clinic options.
- Utah County: Alpine School District’s split into three new districts on July 1, 2027, plus Provo City and Nebo.
- Davis and Weber Counties: Davis School District’s Child Find notice for private-school and home-schooled children, and Weber’s two districts.
- St. George and Washington County: Southern Utah’s growing child population, the countywide district, and Cedar City next door.
Live somewhere else? We can tutor children in any Utah county online. Start with the table above, then use the district notes below to find who handles evaluations where you live.
City, county and school district are different things
For evaluations and IEPs, what matters is your school district, and Utah’s district lines don’t always follow city or county lines. A few examples from official sources:
- Salt Lake County has five school districts: Salt Lake City, Granite, Canyons, Jordan and Murray.
- Draper sits in two counties. Its Salt Lake County side is in Canyons School District; its Utah County side is in Alpine School District.
- Alpine School District is splitting. From July 1, 2027, its area is served by Aspen Peaks, Lake Mountain and Timpanogos school districts.
- Some cities have their own districts. Ogden City and Weber school districts are separate, as are Logan City and Cache County school districts, and Provo City School District is separate from Alpine and Nebo.
- Charter schools are their own local education agencies. USBE’s December 1, 2025 count of students with disabilities lists 41 districts plus 112 charter schools and the Utah Schools for the Deaf and the Blind.
If you’re not sure which district is yours, check your street address with the district, or ask the Utah Parent Center.
Online only, from Special Ed Resource (founded 2014)
We don’t have a Utah office, a tutoring center or in-person sessions, and we don’t list a Utah street address. Special Ed Resource is an online tutoring company with 40+ teachers certified in special education. Our own teachers provide the tutoring directly; we don’t hand families off to anyone else.
Special Education Resource LLC is an approved provider in the Utah Fits All Odyssey Marketplace. We are not Odyssey, the Utah State Board of Education or the State of Utah. To see how families pay, read paying for tutoring with Utah Fits All and how much Utah Fits All pays in 2026-27.
Court status: In April 2025, Utah’s Third District Court ruled Utah Fits All unconstitutional, and the State appealed to the Utah Supreme Court. As of October 1, 2026, the Utah Supreme Court has not ruled, and the program is operating for the 2026-27 school year. More on the court case.
Free and low-cost help across Utah
- Utah Parent Center (800-468-1160): the state’s federally funded Parent Training and Information center, with an office in Murray and help for families statewide. Its Family to Family page lists parent groups by county.
- University of Utah Reading Clinic Distance Tutoring: online reading help for Utah students from late kindergarten through grade 12, with tuition on a sliding scale. It starts with an assessment, and students recommended for help go on a waiting list.
- Your school district’s Child Find office: districts must locate and evaluate children who may have a disability, including home-schooled children who live in their boundaries. See our Utah IEP help page for timelines and your rights.
These are separate organizations, not partners of ours.
