Summary:
ZIP code 84050 has two public middle schools, both in Morgan District and serving grades 5–8: Mountain Green Middle and Morgan Middle. The schools are nearly identical in enrollment, with about 493–496 students each, and have similar student–teacher ratios. This makes them a useful local comparison, although differences in student needs, preparation, and year-to-year groups may affect results.
Mountain Green Middle is the stronger academic performer. It ranks 16th out of 217 Utah middle schools, placing it in the 93rd percentile with five stars. Its combined 2025–26 proficiency average was 60.1%, compared with 50.3% at Morgan Middle. Mountain Green led in average English language arts, mathematics, and science results, with especially strong sixth-grade science at 83.5%. It also has a consistently high statewide ranking, remaining at or above the 90th percentile over the past three years. Its main issue to monitor is mathematics, which declined from the prior year, particularly in eighth grade.
Morgan Middle stands out for attendance: chronic absenteeism was 6.8%, compared with 12.3% at Mountain Green, and both schools were well below the statewide rate of 23.8%. Morgan’s strongest subject is science, averaging 59.2%, and it had notable results in fifth-grade science and eighth-grade mathematics. However, its overall rank fell to 85th of 217 schools, or the 61st percentile, and its main academic concerns are sixth- and seventh-grade ELA and sixth-grade mathematics. Morgan’s free/reduced-price lunch participation is higher, at 11.76% versus 5.65% at Mountain Green, which provides useful context but does not explain school performance. Overall, families prioritizing test performance may prefer Mountain Green, while Morgan offers stronger attendance and some promising grade-level strengths.
