Best Public Schools in Zip Code 84738


Summary:

The 84738 zip code area is home to two schools - Vista School, an alternative public charter school serving grades K-9, and Red Mountain School, a public elementary school serving grades PK-5. While both schools serve the same geographic area, their academic performance and student demographics differ significantly.

Vista School stands out as the top performer, with substantially higher test scores than the state averages across multiple grade levels and subject areas, including English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, Vista School's 5th grade ELA proficiency rate was 66.6% compared to the state average of 48.3%. Additionally, Vista School's 9th grade proficiency rates on the Utah Aspire Plus assessments exceed the state averages in ELA, Math, and Science. Despite serving a diverse student population, with 74.19% White, 18.79% Hispanic, and 5.57% minority students, Vista School maintains a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 37.23%, indicating it serves a sizable population of economically disadvantaged students.

In contrast, Red Mountain School appears to be performing below state averages on most test score metrics, with proficiency rates ranging from the high 20s to low 40s across grade levels and subjects. The school also has a very high free/reduced lunch rate of 59.22%. While Red Mountain School spends more per student ($8,699) compared to Vista School ($5,989), this higher spending does not appear to translate to better academic outcomes.
