Original Research by School Decision on Treeside Charter School
Treeside Charter School is a single-school district in Utah County serving kindergarten through sixth grade. Because it covers only elementary and middle school grades, there is no high school graduation rate to report, and the academic picture comes entirely from state assessments in math, English language arts, and science for grades three through eight.
On those state tests, known as RISE, the school’s overall proficiency across tested subjects and grades sits below the midpoint when compared with other districts in Utah County. In math, roughly one in five students scored at the proficient level or above. In English language arts, about one in three students met that bar. Science results were stronger, with nearly half of students reaching proficiency. A parent considering Treeside will want to look into these numbers further with the school, particularly in math and reading, to understand how the school supports students who are not yet at the proficient level and what interventions or curriculum adjustments are in place.
The school serves about 400 students in kindergarten through sixth grade, making it a small district by enrollment. The student body is predominantly white, with a substantial Hispanic population making up about a quarter of students. Smaller shares of students identify as two or more races, Asian, American Indian or Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, or Black. Data on students with disabilities and English learners was not available, so a parent may want to ask the school directly about how it serves those populations.
Chronic absenteeism is a notable concern. The rate places Treeside in the bottom quartile among Utah County’s districts, meaning a higher share of students are missing substantial school time than at most peer districts. This is a soft spot a parent may want to explore with the school, particularly how attendance is tracked and what supports are in place for students who are chronically absent.
Per-pupil spending is in the lower range among Utah County’s districts. The school’s overall proficiency index, which averages results across tested subjects, sits below the midpoint of the county’s districts. The district operates a single school, also called Treeside Charter School, which is listed as open. No information was available on the school’s charter or magnet status, Title I status, or free-or-reduced-price lunch rates, so a family may want to ask about the school’s funding model and whether it serves a high-need population.
The district brief found general school profile and curriculum information but no lasting parent-relevant changes in recent years. No locale brief was provided, so the surrounding community context is not available from this data. A family considering Treeside will want to visit the school, ask about its approach to math and reading instruction, understand how it addresses chronic absenteeism, and get a feel for the school’s culture and community directly.
