Summary:
ZIP code 84098 has eight schools serving students from prekindergarten through grade 12, including five elementary schools, one middle school, and two high schools, with 2,486 students overall. The strongest concentration of schools is in the Park City District, whose schools generally outperform the other schools in the area. Jeremy Ranch School is the standout elementary school, ranked 10th of 563 statewide and performing consistently well in English language arts, math, and science. Ecker Hill Middle is similarly strong, ranked 10th of 217 middle schools, with especially high science scores.
Other Park City schools also offer strong options, although their results are less consistent. McPolin School ranks 32nd statewide and has particularly strong fourth-grade math and science results. Trailside School remains above average, with excellent fifth-grade math and science scores, but its ranking has declined and its third-grade ELA proficiency is notably weaker. Attendance is also an important difference: chronic absenteeism is relatively low at Jeremy Ranch and McPolin, but higher at Trailside. Across the area, math is the most common academic weakness, especially in some elementary and middle grades.
The remaining schools have more mixed or less complete results. Weilenmann School of Discovery, a K–8 school, has uneven achievement and above-state absenteeism. Silver Summit School has the highest absenteeism rate at 46.7% and several low or unreported test results, while Silver Summit Academy reports promising high-school results but also elevated absenteeism. Winter Sports School has exceptionally low absenteeism, though academic data is limited. Small-school scores are often reported as ranges or omitted, so comparisons should be made cautiously.
