What stands out at Vineyard School

Vineyard School is a mid-sized combined-grade school in Vineyard, Utah, enrolling 764 students.

Class loads run heavy: 26.3:1 is larger than about 88% of Utah schools and 23% above the 21.4:1 state mean, so each teacher carries more students than is typical.

Its free-meal eligibility rate of 21.8% lands close to the Utah typical range, neither a high- nor low-need campus by this measure.

Enrollment of 764 puts it in the larger third of Utah schools by headcount.

Its Resource Investment Index trails 100% of the 1,065 Utah schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.

Among 381 similarly sized, similarly resourced-need Utah schools statewide, it ranks #377, in the lower tier once campus size and economic need are matched.

Its student body is led by White (64%) and Hispanic or Latino (25%) (diversity index 52/100).

Counselor access is stretched at roughly 1528 students per counselor, well above the ASCA-recommended 250:1 ceiling.

Chronic absenteeism is elevated: 41.8% of students missed 10% or more of school days (2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection).

Alpine District also operates Cedar Valley High (3,300 students) and Westlake High (3,052 students) alongside Vineyard School.
