For example, in 2023-2024, 66.7% of 3rd graders, 63.5% of 4th graders, 61.3% of 5th graders, and 55% of 6th graders at White Pine School were proficient or better in RISE/English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 46.7%, 44%, 48.3%, and 47.4%, respectively.

White Pine School has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in Utah, with a ranking of 80 out of 561 schools in 2023-2024 and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's exceptional academic performance, along with its relatively low percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients, suggests a strong educational environment. However, the school's racial homogeneity, with a significantly higher percentage of white students compared to the surrounding schools, raises questions about the inclusiveness and equity of its educational practices.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
