Summary

Hobble Creek School is a PK–6 elementary school in Mapleton, Utah, serving 453 students in the Nebo District in an area with several comparable elementary schools within roughly 1–4 miles. It has a relatively low economically disadvantaged enrollment rate, with 9.93% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. The school ranks 142nd of 563 Utah schools, placing it at the 75th percentile and earning a four-star rating.

Academically, mathematics is the clearest strength. In 2025–26, proficiency reached 66.7% in third grade, 59.8% in fourth grade, and 69.5% in fifth grade—above district and state results in every tested grade. Science is also a consistent strength, especially fifth grade, where 68.3% of students were proficient. English Language Arts is more uneven: fifth-grade proficiency was a strong 63.0%, but third and fourth grade were lower at 47.8% and 43.9%. Fifth grade stands out as the school’s strongest overall tested grade. Nearby Maple Ridge School is the local academic leader, while Sierra Bonita Elementary and improving Sage Creek School are close comparisons.

Families may also note that chronic absenteeism was 23.6% in 2024–25, better than the district’s 26.6% but close to the statewide rate. The student-teacher ratio was 21.4, near the middle of the nearby group, though it has risen gradually in recent years. Overall, Hobble Creek School remains a strong local option with dependable math and science results. The main areas to watch are its decline from the 84th percentile in 2023–24 to the 75th percentile in 2025–26 and the recent softening of third- and fourth-grade ELA performance.
