About Utterback Middle School

Utterback Middle School is a public middle school in Tucson, Arizona, that serves students in grades 6–8. The school has about 226 students and a student-to-teacher ratio of about 9:1, which is lower than average and lets teachers give each student more one-on-one attention. The school focuses on teaching the basics and helping students in the core subjects. Utterback Middle School has a very diverse student body, with a large number of minority students. According to U.S. News, 13% of students are proficient in math and 17% are proficient in reading. This shows that both subjects are difficult for students to learn. The amount of money spent on each student is in line with the amount of money the local district gets, with more focus on classroom support and intervention services. The school is in a city neighborhood where housing is not too expensive. Utterback Middle School's strengths include its small size and low student-teacher ratio, which give students the chance to grow academically and get help with specific problems, making it one of the top schools in Arizona
