Summary:
The city of Mapleton, Utah is home to three elementary schools: Maple Ridge School, Mapleton School, and Hobble Creek School, all part of the Nebo District. Based on the data analysis, Maple Ridge School stands out as the top-performing elementary school in the area, consistently ranking among the best in the state.
Maple Ridge School has maintained a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three school years, with exceptional test scores that significantly outperform the district and state averages in both mathematics and English language arts. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Maple Ridge School's 4th-grade mathematics proficiency rate was 84.3%, compared to 51.4% for the Nebo District and 49.6% for the state. While Mapleton School and Hobble Creek School also perform better than the district and state averages in many areas, they do not reach the same level of excellence as Maple Ridge School.
The data also reveals some areas of concern across all three schools, such as high chronic absenteeism rates of 23.8%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, there are differences in metrics like free and reduced lunch rates and spending per student, with Maple Ridge School having the lowest percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients and Hobble Creek School having the highest spending per student. These insights provide valuable information for parents and the district to consider when evaluating the educational opportunities in the Mapleton area.
