The High School is incredible - dedicated educators, lots of opportunities to participate, great and consistent student outcomes year after year. The breadth of course offerings for a school this size has a match/fits every learner. The availability of sports, music, arts, and activities is incredible. Students are involved, active, and ready to change the world!

My son is graduating 2020. 3 years at PCHS and one year at Treasure. His first comment about Treasure was the teachers were much smarter than the private school he came from in our home state. He loves PCHS, and they pushed him to excel, as did the other smart kids. He says the park city kids have won the genetic lottery: smart, rich and beautiful! He says it's tough to be a girl there because the girls bully each other. I have met several moms who pulled their daughters out of the school due to bullying. The kids have been very nice to him. I kid him it's because he's a big guy. My son is heading to the University of Utah in the fall very college ready. Lots of extracurricular opps. Huge private support $$$. He skis for PE credit. Great experience!

Graduated in 2010. I went to Jeremy Ranch Elementary, Parleys Park Elementary, and Trailside Elementary, then Treasure Mountain Middle and Park City High. Loved my schools. My teachers expected me to work, I did, and when I left, I was ready for college. The high school is very college-oriented, from scholarships to academic prep.

Teachers are not responsive to emails from students or parents, do not enter grades in a timely manner despite having a deadline and do not put students first.

The teachers are OK but the Administration is terrible. This is the most political school ever. Steer clear.
