Schools in Zip Code 84745

ZIP code 84745 has one listed school, LaVerkin School, an elementary school serving prekindergarten through fifth grade in the La Verkin area and part of Washington District. The school enrolls 447 students and has a student-teacher ratio of 20.8. Since it is the only school in the ZIP code, there are no local school-to-school comparisons; its results are best understood alongside district and Utah averages.

LaVerkin School is performing below district and state averages in every reported 2025–2026 English language arts, mathematics, and science comparison. Mathematics is the biggest concern: proficiency averaged about 34.1%, including 30.1% in Grade 4 and 28.2% in Grade 5. English language arts averaged about 39.9%, while science averaged 40.2%. Grade 3 generally had the strongest results, but performance declined in the upper grades, especially in Grade 5 English language arts and mathematics. Chronic absenteeism is also notably high at 33.4%, compared with 15.4% districtwide and 23.8% statewide. More than half of students were reported as receiving free or reduced-price lunch, an important factor for understanding the school’s student population and support needs.

There are signs of progress. Average mathematics proficiency increased from about 27.5% to 34.1% between 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, while science rose from about 36.3% to 40.2%. The school’s statewide ranking also improved from the 15th percentile to the 27th percentile, although it remains a one-star school and below the statewide midpoint. By comparison, Washington District ranks in the 54th percentile, indicating that LaVerkin School trails the broader district. Parents may want to focus particularly on attendance, upper-grade mathematics, and how the school is sustaining its recent academic gains.
