Summary

Orchard School is an elementary school located in Orem, Utah, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 657 students. It is part of the Alpine School District, which is ranked 30th out of 93 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Orchard School has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, indicating strong academic performance.

Orchard School consistently outperforms the Alpine District and the state of Utah in standardized test scores across various grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Orchard School's 4th-grade students scored 62.8% proficient or better in RISE Mathematics, compared to 57.2% for the Alpine District and 49.6% for the state. However, the school has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.8% to 29.9% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, Orchard School has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 20.98% to 26.34% over the past few years, which is lower than some of the nearby schools.

Interestingly, Orchard School's academic performance is generally stronger than the nearby schools within the Alpine District, such as Rocky Mountain School, Centennial Elementary, and Bonneville School. However, Foothill School, which is less than a mile away, consistently outperforms Orchard School across various academic measures. The high chronic absenteeism rates at Orchard School are an area of concern and may be impacting the school's overall academic performance.
