It taught me how to be college ready and exercise my brain. The teacher to student ratio was ideal, and I always felt like I had one on one time with the teachers. I had a group of friends that I truly loved. Something I like to see change at Maeser is the idea that your life revolves around school, and limiting your extracurriculars and sports.

The teachers know their students and their lives, and earnestly want to help the kids grow. They have an awesome staff of aids who each help the kids in their care become better students and people. The teachers are empowered with flexibility and are continuously educated themselves. The Administration is friendly and has a passion for education that can't be matched. The focus is always on the kids. Education isn't about lectures, it's about making learning fun. The teachers and staff at JHCS do that in spades.

  5. #9 Best Private High Schools in UtahAmerican Heritage SchoolAmerican Fork, UT·Private School·K-12·Rating 4.65 out of 5 75 reviewsJunior: I have gone to American Heritage School for almost 12 years now and for the most part the people are absolutely amazing. Learning in a spiritually rich and intellectually stimulating environment has been one of the most important parts of who I am today. This school has shaped me in more ways than I can count. Over the past couple of years, there have been a lot of changes, some of which are amazing, but there are a couple of new developments that I do not believe were necessary or helpful in any way to the school. For example, the new rule that a student can only participate in one sport or activity at a time is a joke. The school is small enough that this really limits the potential for teams. But overall, this school is a sanctuary and I have loved learning here....

  6. #12 Best Public Elementary Schools in UtahLincoln AcademyPleasant Grove, UT·Public School·K-9·Rating 4.67 out of 5 9 reviewsParent: Our 5 children have all attended Lincoln Academy over the past 10 years. We made the move to Lincoln Academy when our oldest child was in 6 grade based on Lincoln's superior Math and Language Arts curriculum, small class sizes, teacher child ratio as each elementary class and all junior high core classes have Teaching Assistants, ability grouping in math and the focus on history and science even in elementary school. The additional benefits we've learned as we've been a part of the Lincoln community for the past 10 years are: the incredible lunch program, that our children are known by name by every teacher, the opportunities our children have had to participate in leadership roles, sports and art programs they otherwise would not have had in larger schools. We also love that parent volunteers are welcomed and wanted in the classrooms and school. We are so grateful for how Lincoln has helped each of our children for the next chapter of their educational journey!...

When you are here, rigorous courses combine with teachers who are both supportive and informative, making a well oiled machine that teaches youth how to grow to be the best that they possibly can. The school offers up stellar academics and extracurriculars, helping students become as accomplished and versatile as they desire. During my time at this revered establishment, I was taught the fundamentals that every student must learn, but I also was taught the importance of integrity, effort, and resilience. I gained both secular and spiritual knowledge. All in all, Liahona teaches every person who enters its doors how to think for themselves, learn and grow on their own, and be exceptional....

The worst part about the school is the teachers who expect you to know more than you do. It can make the classes hard and frustrating, but there is always after school to get more clarification. I also think that many students don't use flex time because they are afraid that they will be looked down on and viewed as unintelligent by those teachers because they are told that they should know the material.
