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.

I've been at Ogden all four years of my high school career. I feel like the school isn't bad, but it definitely needs a lot of improvements. The school has a lot of limitations because the size which I feel like is a big problem.

The school is pretty small yet very big. The staff always goes above and beyond to make every student feel comfortable in the environment. Teachers are very interactive with students and most make sure students understand the topic before sending student off to do classwork.

Terrible. Principal and his staff are busy looking after their own interests and have created a toxic atmosphere at the school. Many parents who helped support the school have left and the school is going downhill every year.
