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.

Provo High school has a nice new campus which provides a great learning environment. However the general culture of the school does not focus on education after high school and a lot of kids don't take challenging classes. There are challenging classes available but they are much less popular and the teachers tend to fluctuate extremely on teaching skills throughout the school.

I think that in the Pros aspect of the School, I enjoyed that there is a lot of resources to be able to prepare for college. There are college and career days to learn more about schools and different Career fields. There is also pathways to be able to complete college credit while being in the school like I myself completed 46 college credits. I think a con would be that I feel like a lot of the teachers overload you with homework even though we have other classes and they also show a bit of favoritism to the outgoing active students in class.

They are also involved in fomenting an atmosphere of honesty and integrity among the students, helping them take...

Provo High School is a reflection of the Ptovo school district. The teachers and administrators are lazy and lax when it comes to enforcing school policy. Teaching at PHS is geared toward satisfing the "Mormon culture" and not the student. It is not unusual for students to use racial epithets in the...
