Summary

Spanish Oaks School is an elementary school in Spanish Fork, Utah, serving 408 students in grades PK-6 as part of the Nebo School District. However, the school has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages, ranking in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools over the past decade with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Spanish Oaks School's academic performance lags behind several nearby schools, such as Maple Ridge School, which is just 2.59 miles away and ranks in the top 10% of Utah elementary schools. In 2024-2025, Spanish Oaks' 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 40.7%, compared to Maple Ridge's 68.3% and the state average of 48.6%. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.9% to 30.5% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average.

Additionally, Spanish Oaks School has seen an increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 16.52% in 2021-2022 to 27.7% in 2023-2024, indicating a growing population of economically disadvantaged students. Addressing the underlying factors contributing to the school's underperformance, such as improving student attendance and academic achievement, should be the primary focus for the school's administration and the Nebo School District.
