Summary:
ZIP code 84003 includes four high schools serving grades 7–12 in the Alpine District: two large comprehensive schools and two small specialized or alternative schools. Together they enroll about 5,064 students, with approximately 95% attending Lone Peak High or American Fork High. Because the smaller schools serve different populations and programs, parents should compare them cautiously with the large high schools.
Lone Peak High is the strongest overall performer. It ranks 19th among Utah high schools, has a 97.0% graduation rate, a 2.4% dropout rate, and strong 2025–2026 proficiency in English Language Arts, mathematics, and science. Its scores improved in all three subjects, and its chronic absenteeism rate of 10.1% is well below district and state levels. American Fork High also has solid outcomes, including a 92.4% graduation rate and the lowest chronic absenteeism rate in the group at 9.6%. However, it ranks lower, has a higher dropout rate, and needs particular improvement in mathematics, where proficiency was 26.5%, below both district and state results.
The smaller schools present different priorities. Polaris High School has only 160 students, a very low student-teacher ratio, and an 86.8% graduation rate, but chronic absenteeism is exceptionally high at 78.7%. Summit High, serving 104 students in grades 7–12, has the greatest measured need, with a 65.0% graduation rate, 12.5% dropout rate, and 52.7% chronic absenteeism. Test scores for both small schools are suppressed, meaning they are unavailable rather than zero. Overall, Lone Peak offers the strongest academic profile, American Fork combines solid graduation and attendance with math concerns, and Polaris and Summit warrant closer attention to attendance, engagement, and student support.
