    I enjoy attending my high school! For the most part, we have great teachers and great students. In my experience, the teachers have been extremely helpful and kind. The school atmosphere is welcoming and there are lots of fun activities and events as well as opportunities to join clubs. It is very safe and we have great administration. We have a great music program- while band and orchestra have room for improvement, there is a great program for Madrigals and Jazz band.

    It has been such an amazing experience. The teachers are dedicated to helping you succeed in every way possible. The faculty is caring and their priority is making sure the students have an enjoyable three years there. The sports activities include everyone and get students excited and pumped. It is a fantastic way for students to connect with each other and make new friends. A way to make memories that will last a lifetime. Along with the dances, Snow Canyon goes all out to make sure everyone has an enjoyable experience. The student council creates an environment where you are able to feel safe and just be yourself and not have to worry about being judged. They are greatly involved in the community and always looking for ways to serve and benefit others. I have absolutely loved these last three years and will remember them forever!
    Easiest classes I’ve ever taken. The teachers don’t really care, and I just felt like another face to them. The experience was very impersonal. The student body is very cliquey and not very kind. There’s lots of drama and 70% of the student body is on some form of drugs!
