    A very thorough high school, offering courses in all sorts of areas including Engineering, Architecture, FACS, Stage Tech, Creative Writing, and even Happiness! Teachers are very knowledgable about their subjects, and are happy to help students to make sure they succeed! You are encouraged to explore extracurricular interests, and have opportunities to earn college credit through Concurrent Enrollment with Weber State or Utah Valley University.

    The school itself can be big at first, but you soon learn where all the different classes are taught. Some facilities are falling apart slightly (the roof leaked this spring, a water main burst last winter), but overall very cozy. Student culture is slightly lacking compared to other High Schools, but when an event comes up, StuCo makes sure that it's over the top!

    Overall, PCHS is able to provide an amazing high school experience, providing skills not only for academics, but for finding what it is you want to do later in life!

    I attended Park City High School during my freshman year and am currently attending for my senior year. One thing that I am sure of is that I like it way better than my old high school. I find it easier to socialize with other students and am more comfortable when speaking to my teachers. Finding resources is easy and teachers are helpful when I need help on something. However one thing that I would like to change is the library. I've never seen a librarian here and there's hardly any books. Other than that, this school is great!
    Park City High School is a very accepting school and the students are very friendly as well as encouraging to many students. They offer a wide variety of AP and upper level classes as well as classes like internship or PCCAPS that you would not see offered at other high schools. The teacher are understanding but do push students to reach their highest potential. Many teachers have teaching methods that keep the students engaged and interested. The counselors do a pretty good job of getting students prepared for college however, I have heard of situations where a counselor did not suggest a student to apply to a fallback school however, they do have programs and time set aside to research schools and careers for the future. There is a school officer in the building at all times, most sports have a school sanctioned varsity team, and almost any club you can think of exists at Park City High and if there isn't one it an be created easily and supported by the school.
