Summary:
The 84655 zip code area in Utah is home to 4 elementary schools, including 3 public schools (Apple Valley School, Santaquin School, and Orchard Hills School) and 1 public charter school (C.S. Lewis Academy). The data reveals a mix of school performance, with some standout schools and areas for improvement across the district.
Santaquin School emerges as the highest-performing school in the area, ranking 303 out of 547 Utah elementary schools and boasting strong proficiency rates in mathematics and science. In contrast, C.S. Lewis Academy stands out with significantly lower mathematics proficiency, scoring only 16.6% proficient in 3rd grade compared to the Nebo School District and Utah state averages of over 48%. Additionally, Orchard Hills School performs well in mathematics and has the highest 5th grade science proficiency rate among the schools.
The data also reveals some concerning trends, such as high chronic absenteeism rates across all 4 schools, which are significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the higher percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at C.S. Lewis Academy suggests that the school serves a more economically disadvantaged student population, raising questions about equity in educational opportunities and resources across the different schools in the area.
