Summary

Ridgeline School is a public prekindergarten-through-sixth-grade school in Highland, Utah, serving 746 students in the highly competitive Alpine District, which ranks 32nd of 92 Utah districts and is in the 65th percentile statewide. Ridgeline remains a strong school overall, ranking 79th of 563 Utah schools, or in the 86th percentile, in 2025–2026. However, this is a decline from its previous 91st–92nd percentile results and places it behind most nearby Alpine District schools. For context, Highland School ranked fourth statewide, while Westfield School ranked 13th.

Academically, Ridgeline is above Utah averages in nearly every reported subject and grade. Mathematics is a notable strength in third, fourth, and sixth grades, with proficiency rates of 67.7%, 79.6%, and 71.9%. Sixth-grade science is another standout at 82.3%, and sixth-grade ELA reached 67.6%. The main academic concern is fifth grade: mathematics dropped from 70.7% to 50.7%, science fell from 72.5% to 56.7%, and ELA was 53.0%. Ridgeline’s ELA results are generally solid but trail the area’s top schools, particularly Highland School. The school’s 8.85% free- or reduced-price lunch rate also suggests a relatively low-need student population compared with several nearby schools, although that measure does not capture every aspect of family circumstances.

Attendance and staffing deserve attention. Chronic absenteeism was 26.8% in 2024–2025, above the district’s 20.8% and Utah’s 23.8%, and higher than most nearby schools, including Eaglecrest School, Legacy School, and Cedar Ridge School. Ridgeline’s student-teacher ratio improved to 25.2 but remained the highest among the local comparison schools. Overall, Ridgeline is a good statewide performer in an unusually strong local cluster; fifth-grade support, attendance, and staffing conditions are the clearest areas to examine.
