Summary:

Weston County School District #7 includes three Upton schools serving kindergarten through grade 12: Upton Elementary (K–5), Upton Middle School (6–8), and Upton High School (9–12). The clearest shared concern is mathematics: in 2025–2026, every tested grade was below its matching state result, with school scores averaging 40% proficient compared with 55% statewide.

Upton High stands out most for particular results: grade 9 ELA reached 85.7%, 30.1 percentage points above the state, and grade 10 science was 11.7 points above. But its grade 10 ELA and math were below state results by 9.7 and 10 points. Upton Middle had the strongest consistent ELA pattern, with grades 6 and 8 above the state; its grade-averaged ELA was 2.4 points above, while math was 12.9 points below. Upton Elementary is the clearest area of concern in math: its average was 22.6 points below the state, including a 27.3-point shortfall in grade 5. SchoolDigger ranks High 39th of 81 (3 stars), Middle 48th of 76 (2 stars), and Elementary 124th of 148 (1 star).

Recent changes show improvement in some results, but not a broad math recovery. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, the equal-weight ELA average moved from 0.4 points below the state to 1.6 points above it; the math gap widened slightly, from 14.7 to 15.0 points below. Elementary and Middle math averages rose 7.9 and 6.3 points, while High’s fell 6.2 points, including a grade 10 decline from 47.4% to 35%. High’s 2024–2025 graduation rate was 90.5%, above the state’s 83.1%. Reported student-teacher ratios were 71.8 at Elementary, 37.6 at Middle, and 7 at High; 2022–2023 free/reduced-lunch eligibility was 5.2%, 8.1%, and 21.9%, respectively. These measures provide context, not explanations for achievement.
