Summary

Plain City School is a public elementary school in the Plain City, Utah, community, serving about 640 students in prekindergarten through sixth grade. It is part of Weber District and is one of the larger schools in the area.

Plain City School is a consistently strong academic performer. Its 2025–2026 ranking was 71st out of 563 Utah elementary schools, placing it in the 87th percentile, or roughly the top 13% statewide. The school has remained in at least the 80th percentile in every reported year since 2015–2016, suggesting that its results reflect sustained performance rather than a one-year spike. Mathematics is the clearest strength: at least 66.3% of students were proficient in each tested grade, including 76.8% in fifth grade and 74.0% in sixth grade. Science results were also strong, particularly sixth grade at 78.2%. English language arts performance exceeded state averages in every tested grade, with especially strong results in fifth and sixth grade.

Attendance is another notable advantage. Chronic absenteeism was 11.9% in 2024–2025, lower than both the district and state rates and the lowest among the nearby schools reviewed. The school’s main academic opportunity is improving third- and fourth-grade ELA results, which were about 49%, while maintaining its stronger upper-grade performance. Among nearby schools, Lomond View School was a very close academic peer, ranking in the 88th percentile and posting stronger recent ELA results, while Farr West School ranked in the 72nd percentile. Overall, Plain City School combines strong math and science achievement, above-state ELA results, low absenteeism, and high performance across a relatively large enrollment.
