Summary

Rocky Mountain Middle is a public middle school located in Heber City, Utah, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 701 students. The school is part of the Wasatch District, which is ranked 20 out of 93 districts in Utah and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Rocky Mountain Middle has consistently ranked among the top middle schools in Utah, with strong academic performance on RISE assessments, particularly in mathematics and science. The school's proficiency rates exceed the state averages across grade levels. However, the school's performance for its Hispanic and Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) student populations is more mixed, an area that could be addressed. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, as the school's rates have fluctuated and are generally higher than the state and district averages.

Compared to nearby schools, Orem Junior High and Mountain Ridge Junior High have more varied academic performance, while Ecker Hill Middle, part of the Park City District, stands out as a high-performing school. Overall, Rocky Mountain Middle is a well-regarded school within the Wasatch District and the state of Utah, with opportunities to further improve its support for all student populations.
