Summary

Mountain Trails School is a public preK–6 elementary school in Eagle Mountain, Utah, serving 846 students in the relatively strong Alpine District, an area where several nearby schools perform considerably better academically.

Mountain Trails ranks 449th of 563 Utah schools, in the 20th percentile, and has a 1-star rating for 2025–2026. Its results are below both district and state averages in every reported subject: 31.3% of students are proficient in English language arts, 30.9% in mathematics, and 35.4% in science. Fourth grade is the most urgent concern, with only 21.1% proficient in ELA, 17.0% in mathematics, and 30.8% in science. By comparison, nearby Black Ridge School, Silver Lake Elementary, and Hidden Hollow School rank between the 68th and 74th percentiles. Other nearby schools, including Brookhaven School, Pony Express School, and Eagle Valley School, also generally report higher achievement.

Attendance is another significant issue: 37.9% of Mountain Trails students were chronically absent in 2024–2025, compared with 20.8% districtwide and 23.8% statewide. Although attendance has improved from 47.2% in 2021–2022, it remains higher than at nearby comparison schools. Mountain Trails also has a higher free/reduced-price lunch rate—35.46%—than its nearby peers, an important factor when evaluating results. Staffing is not unusually limited, with a 22:1 student-teacher ratio, similar to several nearby schools. A useful high-performing benchmark is Ranches Academy, which ranks in the 80th percentile, although it is smaller and serves a less economically disadvantaged population. The clearest priorities for improvement are reducing absenteeism, strengthening fourth-grade instruction, and learning from stronger schools within the district.
