Summary:
ZIP code 84532 has one high school, Grand County High in Moab, serving grades 9–12. The school enrolls 469 students and reports a 15.2:1 student-teacher ratio, giving local families one high-school option rather than several schools to compare. It is part of Grand District.
Grand County High has shown encouraging recent improvement. Its statewide ranking rose from 124th of 138 schools to 97th of 139, its percentile increased from the 10th to the 30th, and its rating improved from one star to two. All six reported Utah Aspire Plus subject-and-grade results increased between 2024–2025 and 2025–2026. The strongest result was 10th-grade English Language Arts, where 55.6% of students were proficient, 7.4 percentage points above the Utah average. Tenth-grade mathematics also improved substantially, rising from 8.8% to 25.9%, while science results increased in both grades.
Despite this progress, families should be aware of several ongoing challenges. Mathematics remains the weakest academic area, especially in ninth grade, where 22.3% of students were proficient compared with 39.4% statewide. Ninth-grade English Language Arts and both science results were also below state averages. In 2024–2025, the graduation rate was 85.8%, below Utah’s 89.8%, while the dropout rate was 13.4%, above the state’s 8.5%. Chronic absenteeism was particularly high at 39.1%, compared with 23.8% statewide. Overall, the school appears to be moving in a positive direction, but attendance, ninth-grade preparation, mathematics achievement, and student persistence remain important priorities.
