Summary

Mount Ogden Junior High is a public school serving grades 7–9 in Ogden, Utah, with 803 students at its Harrison Boulevard campus and a student-teacher ratio of 22.1 to 1. Located in the Ogden City District, the school ranks 132nd of 217 Utah middle schools, placing it in the 39th percentile statewide and making it the highest-ranked school in this comparison.

Mount Ogden stands out because it performs much better than the district’s overall 12th-percentile ranking. In 2025–26, the school exceeded the Ogden City District average in all nine reported subject and grade combinations. Mathematics is a particular strength: Grade 7 proficiency was 45.9%, Grade 8 was 38.7%, and Grade 9 was 34.5%—all close to or above the statewide results in the first two grades. The school also has improved substantially since 2023–24, especially in ninth-grade math and science. Compared with nearby district schools, Mount Ogden’s results are notably stronger than those at Highland Junior High and Mound Fort Junior High. However, comparisons are more mixed with Orion Junior High, Mountain View Junior High, and South Ogden Junior High, which outperform Mount Ogden in selected subjects.

The clearest academic opportunity is science, particularly Grade 8, where proficiency was 33.9% compared with 50.8% statewide. Attendance also deserves attention: chronic absenteeism was 32.0% in 2024–25, better than the Ogden City District average of 40.0% but above Utah’s 23.8%. Subgroup effectiveness is uneven, with English language learner outcomes remaining a significant concern. Overall, Mount Ogden appears to be a steadily improving school and a strong local option, while still needing focused work in science, attendance, and multilingual learner support.
