Summary

Frontier Middle School is a public middle school located in Eagle Mountain, Utah, serving grades 7-9 with a total enrollment of 1,692 students. It is part of the Alpine School District, which is ranked 30th out of 93 districts in Utah and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. While Frontier Middle School's overall performance on RISE assessments is generally on par with or slightly below the Alpine District and state averages, the school stands out in its performance for specific student subgroups, including Hispanic, English Language Learner (ELL), Special Education, and Low Socioeconomic Status (SES) students.

Frontier Middle School's performance is generally lower than the top-performing Mountain Ridge Junior High and Lehi Junior High, which consistently rank among the top 30 middle schools in the state. However, Frontier Middle School outperforms some other Alpine District middle schools, such as American Fork Junior High and Willowcreek Middle, in certain subject areas and student subgroups. When compared to middle schools in the neighboring Jordan District, Frontier Middle School generally outperforms them in student performance, particularly in Mathematics and Science.

Frontier Middle School faces challenges with higher chronic absenteeism rates and lower overall academic performance compared to the top-performing middle schools in the Alpine District. Factors such as spending per student and student-teacher ratio may contribute to the school's academic outcomes. Despite these challenges, Frontier Middle School demonstrates strong performance for specific student subgroups, which is an important strength to consider when evaluating the school's overall performance.
