Summary

Summit School in Smithfield, Utah, serves 705 students in prekindergarten through sixth grade and is part of the relatively strong Cache District, which ranks 16th of 92 Utah districts. The school is surrounded by several large elementary schools, including Sunrise School and Birch Creek School, both less than a mile away.

Summit School remains above average statewide, ranking 190th of 563 schools, in the 66th percentile, with a three-star rating. However, it ranked 98th of 547 schools, in the 82nd percentile, the previous year, so the latest results represent a notable setback. Most nearby Cache District schools currently rank higher, including Cedar Ridge School at the 91st percentile and Sunrise School at the 85th percentile. Academically, third-grade math is a clear strength, with 72.6% proficient, but sixth-grade math is the most urgent concern at 32.6%—20.0 points below the district average and lower than the nearby comparison schools. English language arts and science are above Utah averages overall, though generally below district results, especially in fourth grade.

One of Summit School’s strongest features is its effectiveness with economically disadvantaged students. The low-SES subgroup ranked 14th of 139 schools statewide, in the 90th percentile, and earned a five-star subgroup rating in 2025–2026. This is especially notable because 42.27% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, a higher share than at most nearby schools. Chronic absenteeism was 18.0%, better than the statewide rate of 23.8% but slightly above the Cache District rate of 16.3%. Overall, the school appears to have meaningful strengths to preserve while focusing improvement efforts on sixth-grade math, fourth-grade achievement, science, and attendance.
