GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The teachers at American Fork are amazing! Not only do they care about academics but they care about the individuals at the school. They value all opinions and treat everyone fairly. The culture at American Fork is awesome too. People there also care about you and who you are.

We have many 4H clubs at our school, with tons of different options (photography, science, karate, etc.). We also have many musical programs, like choir, musical theater, band, and orchestra. We have National Junior Honor Society, and FCCLA, as well as many others. There are also simple things, like guitar club, and oragami.

We definitely have a no bullying policy that has been enforced our whole lives. There is also a school nurse and other health resources.

Well run school w/an amazing leadership staff. Their best math teacher (Ms. Dallin ) is leaving this year, which is so sad because if there is any place this school lacks, it's the math department. Otherwise, wonderful principal & staff.
