Brockbank School

Brockbank School is a public elementary school in Spanish Fork, Utah, serving 456 students in prekindergarten through sixth grade as part of Nebo District. The school is in a district that ranks around the middle statewide, but Brockbank itself ranks 378th of 563 Utah elementary schools, placing it in the 33rd percentile with a 2-star rating. Among nearby schools, Brockbank ranks below Canyon School, Park School, Larsen School, and Meadow Brook School, and just above Spanish Oaks School.

Academic results are mixed, with the biggest concerns in upper elementary grades. Third-grade math is a relative strength: 57.2% of students met proficiency, nearly matching the district and exceeding the state result. However, fifth-grade math was 32.8%, the lowest among the nearby schools listed, although it has improved from 22.9% three years earlier. English language arts proficiency was 45.5% in third grade, but only 35.3% in fourth grade and 35.8% in fifth grade. Science results were also below district and state levels, particularly in fourth grade. By comparison, similarly sized Canyon School ranks at the 70th percentile, showing that enrollment size alone does not explain the differences in outcomes.

Attendance is an important area for families to understand. In 2024–2025, 33.5% of Brockbank students were chronically absent—the highest rate among the nearby schools compared and above both the district and Utah rates. The rate has improved from 40.2%, but remains a significant challenge because missed school can limit learning time. There are also encouraging signs: the student-teacher ratio improved from 23.5 to 21.4 over three years, and fifth-grade math and attendance have both moved in a positive direction. Overall, the clearest priorities are improving attendance and strengthening fourth- and fifth-grade instruction, especially mathematics.
