Summary:

Elementary schools serving ZIP code 84721 include four schools serving grades K–5 or K–8: Gateway Preparatory Academy, Three Peaks School, Enoch School, and Fiddlers Canyon School, with 2,409 students combined. Three schools serve elementary grades only, while Gateway continues through eighth grade, giving families an additional middle-grade option. Three schools are part of Iron District, while Gateway is associated with the Gateway Preparatory Academy district.

Enoch School has the strongest overall profile. It ranks highest among the four schools, leads in average English language arts, mathematics, and science performance, and has exceptionally low chronic absenteeism at 0.6%. It also has the lowest student-teacher ratio, at 16.9 students per teacher. Fiddlers Canyon School is another strong academic option, with especially impressive mathematics and science results, including 69.3% proficiency in fourth-grade mathematics. However, its chronic absenteeism rate is the highest in the group at 28.8%, and its statewide ranking declined recently.

Gateway Preparatory Academy has made the largest improvement in statewide ranking and showed meaningful gains in mathematics and science. Its elementary ELA results are generally competitive, but mathematics remains its weakest subject, with additional concerns in sixth- and seventh-grade results and attendance. Three Peaks School has the lowest current ranking and trails the state across all reported subjects, making it the clearest candidate for broad academic improvement. Overall, Enoch stands out for consistent performance and attendance, Fiddlers Canyon for strong achievement with attendance concerns, Gateway for improvement with uneven results, and Three Peaks for needing the most comprehensive support.
