Summary

Mona School is a public elementary school serving 280 students in grades K–6 in the small community of Mona, Utah, within the Juab District. The school has become a standout academic performer: in 2025–26, it ranked 56th out of 563 Utah schools, placing it in the 90th percentile and earning five stars. That represents a major improvement from the 48th percentile in 2015–16 and the 50th percentile in 2021–22. Among nearby schools, Mona ranked well ahead of Spring Lake School, the next-highest comparison school at the 72nd percentile.

Mona’s latest assessment results were stronger than both district and statewide averages in every reported subject. Average proficiency was 63.0% in English language arts, 68.8% in mathematics, and 71.6% in science. Science was the school’s strongest area, including 78.2% proficiency in fourth grade, while mathematics reached 76.1% in third grade. Mona led nearby comparison schools in all reported ELA grades, both science grades, and fifth-grade math, although Nebo View School was slightly higher in third-grade math and Park View School led in fourth-grade math. Fifth-grade ELA, at 55.0%, is the main academic area to monitor.

The clearest challenge is attendance. In 2024–25, 23.9% of Mona students were chronically absent, nearly matching Utah’s rate but exceeding the Juab District average of 14.5%. Attendance has improved from 35.9% in 2021–22, but it remains important for sustaining progress. The share of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch also rose to 25.36% in 2024–25, suggesting a changing student population. Even with these challenges, Mona’s 19.9:1 student-teacher ratio is typical for the area, and its academic results remain notably stronger than those of several nearby schools.
