Summary

East School is a PK–5 elementary school in Roosevelt, Utah, serving about 450 students in the Duchesne District, a rural district that ranks 67th of 92 Utah districts statewide. The school is relatively large compared with nearby Myton School and Neola School, but similar in size to Kings Peak School and Centennial School. East’s latest ranking is in the 21st percentile of Utah schools, an improvement from the 5th percentile in 2021–22 and 2022–23, although it remains below the state midpoint.

The most important academic pattern is that performance is weakest in third and fourth grade and improves by fifth grade. In 2025–26, proficiency was 16% in both third-grade English language arts and math, while fifth-grade results rose to 37.3% in ELA and 40.7% in math. Fifth-grade math exceeded the Duchesne District rate and was higher than results at nearby Kings Peak School and Centennial School. Fifth-grade science was also relatively strong at 50.9%, close to district and state results. By comparison, Altamont School performed better than East in every listed tested subject and ranked in the 75th percentile, while Kings Peak School ranked in the 39th percentile.

Attendance is a major concern but has recently improved: chronic absenteeism fell from 53.4% in 2023–24 to 42.1% in 2024–25, still well above the district’s 31.0% and Utah’s 23.8%. East also has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 20.9:1, compared with 18.3:1 at Altamont School and 16.8:1 at Centennial School. Overall, East shows meaningful progress, especially in fifth grade and in its school ranking, but sustained improvement will likely depend on strengthening early-grade instruction and reducing missed school days.
