Summary:
ZIP code 84721 includes six schools serving grades K–12: four elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school, with 4,378 students across the area. Five schools belong to Iron District, while Gateway Preparatory Academy operates in its own district. Overall performance varies considerably, with strong options in some grade levels and clear attendance or academic challenges at others.
Enoch School has the strongest balanced elementary profile, combining a 66th-percentile ranking, excellent attendance, the lowest elementary student-teacher ratio, and strong mathematics and science results. Fiddlers Canyon School posts standout test scores—especially its 69.3% Grade 4 math proficiency—but has the area’s highest chronic absenteeism rate at 28.8%. Three Peaks School is the weakest current elementary profile, with below-district and below-state results across reported subjects and 24.6% chronic absenteeism. Gateway Preparatory Academy has improved sharply in ranking, rising to the 49th percentile, but mathematics, Grade 7 science, and attendance remain concerns.
Canyon View Middle is a solid middle-school choice and particularly strong in science, exceeding state proficiency in every tested grade; Grade 7 mathematics is its main weakness. Canyon View High has the area’s strongest graduation outcome, with a 97.7% graduation rate and relatively favorable attendance, although its current test proficiency and ranking are more modest, especially in mathematics and Grade 9 ELA. Parents comparing schools should look beyond rankings alone: attendance, subject-specific results, staffing ratios, and graduation outcomes reveal substantially different strengths and needs.
