Summary:
The 84664 zip code area is home to three elementary schools: Maple Ridge School, Mapleton School, and Hobble Creek School. These schools serve students from kindergarten through 6th grade and are part of the Nebo District.
Among the three schools, Maple Ridge School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the top 40 elementary schools in Utah and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Maple Ridge School's test scores significantly outperform the district and state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels, with 84.3% of 4th graders proficient or better in RISE Mathematics, compared to 51.4% for the Nebo District and 49.6% for the state of Utah. The school also has a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 23.8% compared to the other two schools.
While Hobble Creek School has the highest spending per student at $7,223, it does not necessarily translate to the best academic performance. Maple Ridge School, with a lower per-student spending of $6,961, outperforms Hobble Creek School on most test score metrics. This suggests that factors beyond just funding, such as teaching quality, curriculum, and school leadership, play a crucial role in student outcomes.
