Summary

Mapleton Junior High is a public middle school serving grades 7-9 in the Nebo School District in Mapleton, Utah, with a student population of 1,213. The school's test scores are generally on par with or slightly below the district and state averages, with some notable exceptions. For example, the school's 8th grade science proficiency rate of 59.5% was significantly higher than the Nebo District (50.5%) and Utah (49%) averages.

While Mapleton Junior High has relatively low free/reduced lunch rates compared to nearby schools, there are some areas for improvement. The school's White students and low socioeconomic status students have performed lower than the state average, ranking 113th and 83rd, respectively, out of Utah middle schools. In contrast, the school's Hispanic students have performed relatively well, ranking 44th out of 106 Utah middle schools.

Additionally, the school's spending per student is on the lower end compared to nearby schools, which may be a factor to consider given its relatively strong science proficiency rates.
