Summary

Maple Grove Middle is a large public school in Mapleton, Utah, serving 1,195 students in grades 6–8 within the Nebo District. The school is near several other district middle schools and ranks 65th out of 217 Utah middle schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the 70th percentile. Its current standing remains notably stronger than it was two to three years ago, although it slipped from 50th place the previous year.

Academically, Maple Grove performs above the district in all six reported grade-subject areas. Its clearest strength is sixth-grade science, where 74.3% of students were proficient—well above the district’s 62.6% and the state’s 58.2%. Seventh-grade math was another strong area at 53.7%, compared with 48.5% districtwide. Among nearby grade 6–8 schools, Maple Grove generally outperformed Valley View Middle, Spring Canyon Middle, and Diamond Fork Middle. Its results were especially strong in sixth-grade science, while Spring Canyon had a higher seventh-grade ELA result and Valley View led in seventh-grade math.

The school’s subgroup effectiveness is also a positive feature: it ranked in the 89th percentile for Hispanic students, 83rd percentile for students from lower-income households, and 68th percentile for special education students in 2025–2026. The biggest concern is attendance. Chronic absenteeism was 31.6%, higher than both the district’s 26.6% and the state’s 23.8%. This was considerably higher than nearby Mapleton Junior High, which had a similar overall ranking but a 26.1% absenteeism rate. Sixth-grade math, at 36.6%, is another improvement opportunity, while maintaining recent academic gains should remain a priority.
