Summary

Provost School is a public elementary school in Provo, Utah, serving 483 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the Provo District, which is ranked 49 out of 93 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Provost School consistently outperforms the Provo District and the state of Utah in standardized test scores, with 5th-grade students scoring 60.4% proficient or better in RISE/Mathematics, compared to 45.9% for the Provo District and 44.4% for the state. However, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 23.8% to 28.6% in recent years, which may be an area of concern. Additionally, 49.07% of Provost School's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, higher than the state average, which may contribute to the school's challenges.

Compared to nearby schools, Provost School's performance is generally stronger, particularly in test scores. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Provost School's 5th-grade students scored 60.4% proficient or better in RISE/Mathematics, compared to 51.9% at Westridge School and 26.5% at Timpanogos School. However, the school's high chronic absenteeism rate is not an outlier, as nearby schools have similar rates ranging from 23.8% to 25.8%.
