Summary:
The Springville Union Elementary district consists of a single K-8 school, Springville Elementary, serving 335 students in a rural community where over half qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
As the only school in the district, Springville Elementary provides a continuous education from kindergarten through 8th grade. Its academic performance is generally below state averages, with about 41% of students proficient in English and 30% proficient in math, though its ranking has seen a recent slight decline. A notable area of strength is 8th-grade science, where student proficiency exceeds the state average.
Key challenges for the school include a chronic absenteeism rate higher than the state average and significant variability in performance between different grade levels and subjects. The school's per-student spending is above the national average, reflecting investment in a community with significant economic need. The single-school structure means the district's performance is entirely represented by this one school, offering a clear but singular picture of education in this area.
