Summary:
The 84745 zip code in Utah has only one school, LaVerkin School, which serves grades PK-5 with 411 students. As part of the Washington District, which is ranked 35 out of 98 districts in the state, LaVerkin School faces some academic challenges compared to district and state averages.
LaVerkin School's test scores are consistently lower than the Washington District and Utah state averages across grade levels and subject areas. For example, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was 22.4% in 2023-2024, compared to the district's 49.4% and the state's 46.7%. Additionally, over half (53.77%) of LaVerkin School's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage. The school's spending per student of $9,010 is also lower than the district and state averages, which could be a contributing factor to the academic performance concerns.
While further investigation would be necessary to fully understand the underlying factors, the data suggests that LaVerkin School may require targeted interventions and support to address the academic performance challenges and better serve its student population, which is predominantly White with a smaller percentage of Hispanic students.
