Summary

Park School is a public elementary school in Spanish Fork, Utah, serving 469 students in prekindergarten through sixth grade as part of the Nebo District. Located at 90 N 600 E, it is a relatively average-performing school statewide, ranking 320th of 563 Utah elementary schools in 2025–26, at the 43rd percentile. Its two-star SchoolDigger rating and 19.5-to-1 student-teacher ratio provide a quick snapshot, but the school’s long-term progress is also important: its ranking rose from the low teens in the mid-2010s to the low-to-mid 40s in recent years.

Academic results are mixed by grade and subject. In 2025–26, Park’s three-grade averages were approximately 41.6% proficient in English language arts and 47.0% in mathematics, both below district averages. Third grade is a particular challenge in both subjects, while fourth-grade mathematics was close to the state average. Science is a bright spot in fourth grade, where 55.4% of students were proficient—above both district and state results—and science scores improved substantially in both tested grades. Park generally trails higher-performing nearby schools such as Maple Ridge School, East Meadows School, Sierra Bonita Elementary, and Canyon School, but is competitive with several schools ranked nearby or below it.

Attendance is Park’s clearest concern: chronic absenteeism was 30.7% in 2024–25, higher than the district’s 26.6% and Utah’s 23.8%, although it improved from 32.4% the prior year. Park also serves a higher-poverty student population than nearly all nearby comparison schools, with 57.14% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Even so, its low-income-student subgroup ranked at the 87th percentile statewide, suggesting a relative strength in supporting those students. Overall, Park appears to be an improving school with strong recent science gains, better staffing ratios, and encouraging effectiveness for low-income students, while literacy, some mathematics grades, and attendance remain priorities.
