Manti High

Summary:

Manti High is a public high school serving 693 students in grades 9-12 in Manti, Utah, which is part of the South Sanpete School District. The school has a predominantly white student population, with 84.13% of students identifying as white, which is higher than the state average and the nearby Gunnison Valley High, which has 79.55% white students.

Manti High's academic performance has been mixed compared to state and district averages. In 2023-2024, the school's 10th-grade students scored below the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, but the 9th-grade students outperformed the state average in Science. Compared to the South Sanpete District, Manti High's performance has been more consistent, with scores generally in line with the district averages. The school's statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating have fluctuated over the years, ranging from 34th out of 136 high schools in 2018-2019 to 86th out of 139 high schools in 2022-2023.

Manti High serves a significant population of students from low-income families, with 34.65% to 35.93% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch over the past three school years. This is higher than the state average and suggests that the school faces unique challenges in addressing the needs of this student population. The school's per-student spending is lower than the nearby Gunnison Valley High, and its student-teacher ratio is higher, which may contribute to the school's performance and resource allocation.

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.
