Beaver High

Summary:

Beaver High is a public high school located in Beaver, Utah, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 481 students. The school is part of the Beaver District, which is ranked 38 out of 98 districts in Utah and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Beaver High has struggled to keep pace with state and district averages. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science were generally lower than the Beaver District and state averages for most grade levels in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with some improvements in certain subjects and grade levels, but overall, it has been below the state and district averages. Beaver High's statewide ranking has also varied, ranging from 39th out of 123 Utah high schools in 2017-2018 to 101st out of 129 in 2020-2021. In the most recent school year, the school ranked 70th out of 138 Utah high schools and received a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Beaver High has also faced demographic and socioeconomic challenges. The school has seen an increase in the percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, from 27.58% in 2021-2022 to 37.84% in 2022-2023. Additionally, the school's white student subgroup, which makes up the majority of the student population, has also struggled academically, ranking 62nd out of 123 Utah high schools in 2023-2024. These factors may be contributing to the school's overall academic challenges, and the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student learning outcomes and overall school performance.

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.
