Summary:
Uintah District has two listed high schools in the Uintah area of Utah serving grades 8–12: the large, traditional Uintah High and the smaller Ashley Valley Educ. Center. Together, they enroll about 2,130 students, with Uintah High serving approximately 1,843 and Ashley Valley serving 287. Both schools share the district’s three-star standing and rank 33rd among 92 Utah districts, but the available current performance information is much more complete for Uintah High.
Uintah High has the stronger overall profile in the available data. Its 2024–2025 graduation rate was 89.3%, above the district rate of 86.6%, while its dropout rate was 8.8%, below the district’s 11.4%. Its chronic absenteeism rate was 31.6%, considerably better than the district’s 50.9%, although still higher than Utah’s 23.8%. In 2025–2026, the school exceeded statewide proficiency rates in 10th-grade English, math, and science, as well as ninth- and 10th-grade math. Tenth-grade math was especially strong, at 15 percentage points above the state. Parents may want to ask about support for ninth-grade English and science, where results were below statewide levels.
Ashley Valley Educ. Center is much smaller and has a very different profile. Its most important current indicator is an 81.1% chronic absenteeism rate—far above both Uintah High and the district average. The school’s current graduation, dropout, and test-score results were not provided, so its academic performance cannot be fairly compared. Its reported student-teacher ratio of 287 also appears unusual and should be verified, since it may reflect a special reporting or program structure. Families considering Ashley Valley should ask about attendance supports, program format, course completion, and current academic outcomes.
