Summary

Park City High is a public high school serving grades 9–12 in the mountain community of Park City, Utah, with 1,177 students and access to a larger, comprehensive-school setting than several nearby specialized or small schools. The school ranks 5th out of 139 Utah high schools, placing it in the 96th percentile, and Park City District ranks 5th among Utah districts. Most larger comparison schools are approximately 12–19 miles away, while Silver Summit Academy and Winter Sports School are closer.

Academically, Park City High performs above the Utah average in every reported subject and grade. Its strongest results are 9th-grade science, with 79.2% of students proficient, and 9th-grade mathematics, at 63.2%. It also leads the comparison group in most tested areas, including both ELA grades, 9th-grade math, and both science grades. Tenth-grade math is a relative area to watch: 43.1% of students were proficient, still well above the state’s 29.4% but below North Summit High’s 58.1%. The school’s statewide rank has climbed from 46th in 2016–17 to 5th in 2025–26, suggesting meaningful recent improvement.

Student outcomes are another major strength. The graduation rate is 95.2%, the dropout rate is 4.1%, and chronic absenteeism is 6.8%—far below Utah’s 23.8% rate and lower than most comparison schools. Only Wasatch High reports lower chronic absenteeism, while Skyline High has a higher graduation rate at 97.1% and remains the closest overall competitor. A 17.7 student-teacher ratio is also favorable among larger nearby schools. Subgroup effectiveness has improved, especially for English language learners and students from low-income households, although the latter remains an area for continued attention.

Open Quote Park City High School was rated the Number 1 high school in the state of Utah in 2011-2012. It was also named the Number 1 school for Advanced Placement test scores the same year by a huge margin. It has wonderful facilities, incredible faculty, a 1-to-1 student-computer ratio, and a wide variety of extracurricular clubs and sports. Close Quote

Open Quote Park City High School is one of the best Schools I have ever gone to. The school offers so many classes that will help you get where you want to go. If you are thinking about sending your kids here I would strongly recommend it. It has taught me so much! Close Quote

Open Quote PCSD was ranked 1 in the state and in the top 100 nationally when we moved here, now they are not in the top 1000. The administration is a totally disorganized mess with both academics and athletics, District wide they have that superiority arrogance of knowing they can never, and have never been wrong about anything, and they are more concerned with acting like lawyers than the students education.
