Elementary Schools in Monticello Academy

The Monticello Academy district in Utah is home to two elementary schools: Monticello Academy and Monticello Academy West Point. While both schools serve elementary grades, the data suggests significant differences in their performance and characteristics.

Monticello Academy West Point emerges as the standout school in the district, with a higher statewide ranking, a 4-star school digger rating, and stronger test scores across math, science, and English language arts compared to both the district and state averages. In contrast, Monticello Academy has a lower 2-star rating and more mixed academic performance, with some grade levels performing above the state average but others significantly below.

Both schools face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, which likely contribute to their relatively low overall test scores. Additionally, the difference in student-teacher ratios between the two schools, with Monticello Academy West Point having a higher ratio, may be a factor in their performance gap. These findings highlight the importance of examining school-level data to identify and understand variations within a district, rather than relying solely on district-level averages.
