Summary:
Fast Forward High is the only high school in this area, serving grades 9–12 and 439 students in Logan, Utah; it has a 25.5-to-1 student–teacher ratio and no other nearby schools in this list for direct comparison.
Fast Forward High shows significant academic challenges compared with Utah statewide results. In 2025–2026, 9th-grade English Language Arts proficiency was 21.7%, compared with 45.4% statewide, while 10th-grade proficiency was 27.2% versus 48.2%. Mathematics results were especially low: under 6.7% of 9th graders and under 8.6% of 10th graders were proficient, compared with 39.4% and 29.4% statewide. Science performance was also weak, at 14.3% for 9th grade and 9% for 10th grade, compared with 49.7% and 39.3% statewide. Earlier results show that science performance has been persistently low rather than reflecting only one difficult year.
Attendance and engagement are major concerns. In 2024–2025, chronic absenteeism affected 54.1% of students, more than twice Utah’s 23.8% rate, and the dropout rate was 10.5%, compared with 8.5% statewide. At the same time, the graduation rate was 89.5%, nearly matching the state rate of 89.8%; understanding how students graduate despite very low assessment results would be useful for families and school leaders. The school ranked near the bottom of its reported Utah comparison group for three consecutive years and received zero stars. Parents may want to ask about attendance support, math and science interventions, course completion, credit recovery, teacher staffing, and graduation pathways. The separate Fast Forward High district listing also shows a very low ranking, although it appears to use a different ranking population.
