Summary:
The 84765 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (Arrowhead School and Santa Clara School) and 1 middle school (Lava Ridge Intermediate). Among these, Santa Clara School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking higher than the other schools and outperforming the Washington District and state averages in several academic areas.
Lava Ridge Intermediate has shown improvement over time, moving from a 2-star to a 3-star rating on SchoolDigger. It also outperforms the district and state in 7th-grade Mathematics. In terms of demographics, Lava Ridge Intermediate has a more diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic and Native American students compared to the other two schools.
The three schools have similar per-student spending, ranging from $7,491 to $7,918, suggesting that factors other than funding, such as school leadership, teaching quality, and curriculum, may be contributing to the observed performance differences. Additionally, the higher free/reduced lunch rate at Lava Ridge Intermediate may indicate a need to address potential socioeconomic disparities and ensure equitable access to resources and support for all students in the area.
