Here's the great schools rating for all UC high schools.....

Not that it necessarily means anything, schools seem to get docked for ESL students that have to play catch up and make the overall academic picture look bleaker than it should, but I was curious:

Lone Peak - 8/10
Maple Mountain - 7/10
Salem Hills - 6/10
Westlake - 6/10
Skyridge - 6/10
American Fork - 6/10
Timpanogos - 6/10
Orem - 5/10
PG- 5/10
Spanish Fork 5/10
Timpview - 5/10
Lehi - 4/10
Mountain View - 4/10
Provo - 3/10(where I went)

Thanks Don. Don’t want a drug or social drama ridden HS.

Dr MoBYU

6/19/21 8:28am

There are drugs in every school. It's always about the friends your student

The only HS like that might be Home School and that is debatable on drama.

We’re zoned for Lone Peak but our ward seems to have more and more choosing to

lol the 'rich school' being elitist is the most worn out stereotype ever

Hotlanta

And sometimes stereotypes are there for a reason. Naturally it doesn’t fit all kids

Soupie

Lone Peak has 2500 kids. There will be a clique or group for everyone

More and more kids in Highland near the Lehi border are choosing Skyridge. And you don’t need a waiver anymore starting

I’ve never seen that argument used to get people to attend the rich school

I’m just assuming he/she is looking at it from a different angle than I based on
