Summary

Spanish Fork High is a public high school located in Spanish Fork, Utah, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,546 students. It is part of the Nebo School District, which is ranked 50 out of 93 districts in Utah and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Spanish Fork High appears to be an underperforming school within the Nebo School District and the state of Utah, with consistently low statewide rankings, ranging from 75th to 111th out of 123-139 schools over the past 10 years. Its academic achievement, as measured by proficiency rates on the Utah Aspire Plus assessments, has been consistently lower than the Nebo District and state averages. For example, in 2024-2025, only 42.2% of 10th-grade students at Spanish Fork High were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 49.4% in the Nebo District and 51.8% statewide. The school's four-year graduation rate has also fluctuated between 88.3% and 97.9% over the past few years, which is generally lower than the state average.

Interestingly, nearby schools like Springville High and Salem Hills High have consistently outperformed Spanish Fork High in terms of statewide ranking, academic achievement, and student group performance. This suggests that the school's underperformance may not be primarily driven by socioeconomic factors, as Spanish Fork High has a relatively low percentage of free and reduced-lunch recipients. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate and relatively low graduation rates are also areas of concern that the school and district may need to address.
