Summary

Art City School is an elementary school in Springville, Utah, serving 445 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Nebo School District. While the school has a 3-star rating, it faces several challenges compared to nearby schools in the district.

Art City School has consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.8% to 30.5%, which is a significant concern. Additionally, the school's test scores in RISE assessments for Mathematics, Science, and English Language Arts are generally below the Nebo District and Utah state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd-grade Math proficiency rate was 41.9%, compared to the district's 51.2% and the state's 48.6%. The school also serves a higher percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with 25.27% to 34.16% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to nearby schools within the Nebo District, such as Mapleton School and Maple Ridge School, Art City School generally underperforms in terms of test scores and statewide rankings. The school's higher student-teacher ratio, ranging from 19.7 to 23.1, may also contribute to the academic challenges faced by the students.
