Summary

Mapleton School is a PK–6 elementary school serving 591 students in Mapleton, Utah, within the Nebo District. It is located near several other district elementary schools, including Hobble Creek School and Maple Ridge School. Mapleton’s latest statewide ranking placed it 193rd out of 563 Utah elementary schools, in the 66th percentile, with a 3-star rating. That is above average statewide, but below several nearby schools that provide useful local benchmarks.

Mathematics is Mapleton’s clearest academic strength. In 2025–2026, math proficiency exceeded district and state results in grades 3–5, including a 13.1-point advantage over the district in fifth grade. Science proficiency was also above district and state levels in grades 4–5. English Language Arts results were more mixed: third grade was 7.2 points above the district, while fourth- and fifth-grade results were close to district and state averages. Performance declined from the previous year in most math and science grades, accompanying a ranking drop from the 84th percentile to the 66th percentile. Mapleton still compares favorably with schools such as Rees School, Meadow Brook School, and Brookside School, but trails stronger nearby performers.

Attendance is an important concern. Chronic absenteeism was 30.0% in 2024–2025, compared with 26.6% in the district and 23.8% statewide, and has remained near 30% for several years. Mapleton’s 9.98% free- or reduced-price lunch rate is similar to Hobble Creek School and Maple Ridge School, yet those schools ranked in the 75th and 95th percentiles, respectively. Maple Ridge also exceeded Mapleton in every reported tested subject and grade. The most promising priorities are reducing absenteeism, strengthening fourth- and fifth-grade ELA, and restoring recent math and science gains while maintaining the school’s math strengths.
