Summary

Old Mill School is a PK–5 elementary school in Heber City serving 769 students in the Wasatch District, a growing mountain community near Park City with several nearby public and charter school options. The school ranks 11th out of 563 Utah elementary schools for 2025–26, placing it in the 98th percentile and earning a 5-star rating. Its performance has been consistently strong: it has ranked among Utah’s top schools for six consecutive reported years, improving from the 35th percentile in 2015–16. This sustained record suggests that the school’s results are not limited to a single unusually successful year.

Old Mill School performs well across every tested subject. In 2025–26, proficiency averaged approximately 74.4% in English Language Arts, 78.3% in math, and 76.4% in science. Its strongest result was third-grade math, with 79.7% of students proficient, while fifth-grade math exceeded the Utah average by 32.6 percentage points. The school ranked ahead of nearby high-performing options including Midway School, McPolin School, and Parley’s Park School. Midway is the closest academic comparison: it was slightly stronger in fourth-grade math and some science results, but Old Mill had higher ELA results in all tested grades, stronger third- and fifth-grade math, and a higher statewide rank.

Attendance is the clearest area for improvement. Chronic absenteeism fell from 34.5% to 20.4% in 2024–25, but remained above the Wasatch District rate of 14.5%. Even so, Old Mill’s attendance was better than rates reported by Midway School, Heber Valley School, and J.R. Smith School. The reported student–teacher ratio of 21:1 is higher than at most nearby comparison schools, making the academic results especially notable. Overall, Old Mill School stands out as one of the region’s strongest elementary schools, combining broad achievement with a substantial long-term improvement trend.
