Nebo District

The Nebo District in Utah encompasses 48 schools, including 30 elementary schools, 10 middle schools, 5 high schools, and 3 alternative schools. The district as a whole is ranked 54th out of 100 districts in Utah and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, with average test scores below the state averages.

Within the district, a few schools stand out for their exceptional performance. Maple Ridge School is an elementary school that ranks 23rd out of 561 Utah elementary schools, with consistently high proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Similarly, Hobble Creek School and Sierra Bonita Elementary are also among the top-performing elementary schools in the district. At the high school level, Maple Mountain High stands out, ranking 17th out of 139 Utah high schools and scoring above the district and state averages in all three subject areas.

However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the top-performing and lower-performing schools within the Nebo District. Schools with higher rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, a proxy for socioeconomic status, tend to have lower test scores, suggesting that targeted interventions and support may be needed to address these disparities and improve overall student achievement across the district.
