Recent data shows a trend in ACT composite scores at Manti High School. The score was 19.3 in 2022, 19.0 in 2023, 19.5 in 2024, and reached 19.9 in 2025.

To achieve its growth goals, the school has identified several action plan steps. These include using TSSA funds for teacher professional development and purchasing software, equipment, books, and supplies for classroom use. The plan also includes funding for Brittany Mason AD secretary to assist with tracking grades and attendance.

Additional support measures involve hiring math tutors for the teen center and planning to hire an Americorp employee to assist with tutoring and attendance tracking.
