Summary

Providence School is a public K–6 elementary school in Providence, Utah, serving 719 students in the Cache Valley area and ranking among the stronger elementary schools in the state. It is part of Cache District, which ranks 16th of 92 Utah districts, while Providence ranks 65th of 563 Utah elementary schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the 88th percentile and earning a four-star rating. The school’s ranking has improved substantially from the 69th percentile in 2021–2022.

Academically, Providence is especially strong in science and English language arts. In 2025–2026, science proficiency averaged approximately 76.1% across grades 4–6, above both the district’s 66.9% and the state’s 54.3%. Providence outperformed nearby Millville School, Nibley School, and River Heights School in every reported science grade. ELA proficiency averaged about 61.3%, compared with 45.7% statewide, with particularly strong results in grades 4 and 6. Math was also well above the Utah average overall, although it was less consistent by grade. Grade 6 math, at 49.6%, is the clearest area to monitor, while grade 4 math was below the district average in the latest year.

Attendance has improved: chronic absenteeism fell from 22.4% in 2021–2022 to 17.1% in 2024–2025, better than the 23.8% state rate but slightly above the district’s 16.3%. Providence’s rate was higher than River Heights’ 12.8% but lower than Millville’s 20.5%. The school’s 23.3-to-1 student-teacher ratio is also higher than those nearby schools. Providence serves a comparatively smaller share of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch—14.05%, versus approximately 29%–32% at the nearby Cache schools—so achievement comparisons should be considered in context. Overall, Providence offers a strong, improving profile, with science as its standout strength and upper-grade math as the main opportunity for continued attention.
