Summary:
ZIP code 84302 has one listed middle school, Young Intermediate, a large Brigham City campus serving grades 6–7 with 1,003 students in the Box Elder District. Because it is the only middle school in the ZIP code, there are no local school-to-school comparisons; the most useful context comes from district, state, and historical data.
The most important current concern is attendance. Chronic absenteeism was 35.0% in 2024–2025, compared with 32.0% across the district and 23.8% statewide. In practical terms, this means a notably large share of students missed enough school to be classified as chronically absent, although the available data does not explain why or identify which grades or student groups were most affected. The school’s size may provide a broad range of programs and services, but it can also make individualized attendance follow-up more challenging. The reported student-teacher ratio is 20.4 to 1, while 33.3% of students participated in the free or reduced-price lunch program. These figures offer useful planning context but do not, by themselves, measure school quality.
Historical rankings provide one positive signal: the school’s reported percentile rose from 41st in 2016–2017 to 49th in 2017–2018 and 63rd in 2018–2019, while its rating increased from two to three stars. However, ranking pools and methods changed, and the available information does not include current test scores, academic growth, subgroup results, or recent attendance trends. Per-student spending of $8,131 is also from 2018–2019 and should not be treated as current. Parents considering Young Intermediate may want to ask about attendance-support programs, current academic performance, class sizes, counseling access, and how the school monitors students who are frequently absent.
