Timpanogos School is a public elementary school in Provo, Utah, serving 627 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the Provo District, which is ranked 39 out of 98 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Timpanogos School consistently underperforms the Provo District and Utah state averages in RISE test proficiency across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd grade English Language Arts proficiency was 32%, compared to the district's 50.1% and the state's 46.7%. Additionally, Timpanogos School has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 54.24% to 69.2% over the past three years, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families. As a result, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

In comparison, the nearby schools, such as Wasatch School, Provost School, and Rock Canyon School, generally outperform Timpanogos School in terms of test scores, school rankings, and socioeconomic indicators. These schools have higher percentages of white students and lower percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While Timpanogos School has access to additional resources, with higher spending per student compared to nearby schools, this has not translated into improved academic outcomes, indicating that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to the school's challenges.

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.
