Summary:
The city of Price, Utah is home to a single middle school, Mont Harmon Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. While the school's performance has been consistently in the bottom half of Utah middle schools over the past three years, its academic outcomes are generally in line with or slightly below the Carbon School District and state averages.
Mont Harmon Middle has shown mixed results on state assessments, with 6th grade math proficiency below the state and district averages, but 7th grade math proficiency exceeding both. Science proficiency is closer to the state and district levels across grade levels, while English Language Arts proficiency is around the averages in 6th and 7th grade but slightly below in 8th grade. The school's relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.8% in 2023-2024 could be a contributing factor to its academic performance.
Demographically, Mont Harmon Middle has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 46.43% in 2023-2024, which may indicate the school serves a population with greater economic challenges. The school's student-teacher ratio of 19.4 in 2023-2024 is slightly higher than the state average. While the data suggests Mont Harmon Middle is a relatively average-performing middle school in Utah, the school's consistent ranking in the bottom half of the state's middle schools suggests there may be room for improvement to better support student success.
