How good is Midvale Middle?

Midvale Middle earns a 3 out of 10 GreatSchools rating, which places it below the state average on recent test scores. GreatSchools does not publish a full proficiency breakdown for the school on its public profile, so treat the single rating as a starting point rather than the whole picture. One number that does stand out in the published data is attendance: roughly 97 percent of students are present nearly every school day, far above the statewide figure.

The school serves about 800 students at a student to teacher ratio in the range of 19 to 1, which is lighter than many valley middle schools. Midvale Middle is a rebuilt campus, part of the district’s long bond-funded effort to replace aging buildings, so families should expect a newer building than the rating alone might suggest. As always, a tour and a conversation with the principal will tell you more than any score.

Where Midvale Middle fits

Midvale Middle sits in the middle of the Midvale school progression. Nearby elementary schools, including Copperview and East Midvale, sit in the same part of the city and route into the Midvale Middle pipeline. From Midvale Middle, students continue on to Hillcrest High School for grades 9 to 12.

Midvale is served by two middle schools, Midvale Middle and Union Middle, and the split between them tracks roughly with State Street: homes on the west side generally route to Midvale Middle, a busing school, while several neighborhoods east of State Street feed Union Middle, a walking school. Those lines were redrawn in recent years, so treat any pairing as a starting point, not a guarantee. Confirm your exact boundary with the Canyons School District before you rely on a feeder.

Homes in the Midvale Middle boundary

The Midvale Middle boundary covers a good stretch of central and west Midvale, a mix of established single-family neighborhoods, newer infill, and townhome and condo communities near the light rail and the freeway. That range means the housing options are broad, from entry-level condos up to larger single-family homes.

Because the boundary spans both older and newer pockets, prices vary widely from block to block, and the mix of active listings shifts month to month. Rather than quote a range that goes stale quickly, we would rather pull a current, address-specific snapshot for you.

A local broker’s take

Midvale is one of the more affordable ways onto the east-central Salt Lake Valley, and Midvale Middle sits at the center of that value. The GreatSchools rating is on the low side, so if test scores are your top priority, dig into the most recent state data and tour the school before you decide. What the rating does not capture is a rebuilt campus, small class sizes, and a short path to Hillcrest, a well-regarded high school. When you find a home you like, we will confirm its exact middle and high school boundaries before you write an offer.
