Carbon District

Summary:

The Carbon District in Utah serves a diverse population of students across 9 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. While the district faces some persistent challenges, a few standout schools like Castle Heights School and Helper Middle School demonstrate strong academic performance, with proficiency rates exceeding district and state averages.

The data reveals significant disparities in school performance within the district. While Carbon High School and Helper Middle School are among the top-performing schools, others like Sally Mauro School and Wellington School struggle, with proficiency rates well below state averages. This suggests the district may need to address achievement gaps and ensure more equitable distribution of resources.

Across the district, high chronic absenteeism rates and significant funding disparities, ranging from $8,317 per student at Castle Heights School to $47,224 at the alternative Castle Valley Center, present ongoing challenges. Addressing these issues, along with the declining performance at some schools, could be key priorities for the Carbon District moving forward.
