Summary
Wellsville School is a K–6 elementary school serving 463 students in the Wellsville, Utah, area as part of the high-performing Cache District. The school has a four-star rating and ranks 148th of 563 Utah schools, placing it at the 74th percentile statewide. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 21.5, and chronic absenteeism was 17.2%—better than Utah’s 23.8% rate and lower than most nearby schools. Overall, it is a solid school statewide, although several nearby Cache District schools rank higher.
Academically, Wellsville School performs above state averages in English Language Arts, mathematics, and science. Science is a dependable strength, with proficiency averaging 65.6% across tested grades. Fourth-grade mathematics is especially strong at 72.1%, compared with 50.4% statewide. The clearest concern is third-grade mathematics, where proficiency was 42.4%, below both the district’s 63.3% and the state’s 50.1%. ELA is also weaker in third and fourth grade, at 45.7% and 50.9%, while fifth- and sixth-grade ELA results were much closer to district performance. These results suggest a school with uneven grade-level performance rather than broad academic weakness.
Among nearby schools, Heritage School, Providence School, Nibley School, Millville School, and Mountainside School generally outperform Wellsville School. However, Wellsville is clearly ahead of Lincoln School and Canyon School in overall standing. Its rank improved from 211th in 2024–25 to 148th in 2025–26, and chronic absenteeism has fallen from 29.5% in 2021–22 to 17.2%. For families, the main positives are improving attendance, strong science, and fourth-grade math; the biggest improvement priorities are third-grade math and early-grade literacy.
