Kearns High School

"Overall, this is a pretty decent school. It has an awful rep, and it doesn't deserve most of the bad things people say. Yes, there are fights and gangs, but not as bad as people seem to think. Most fights actually happen off of school property at the nearby skate park. The teachers aren't the best, but they aren't terrible either. And the students are more united, I like to think. Most everyone gets along well."

"This school is not great at handling issues with bullying. I am trying to keep my family safe and i keep getting the run around and then my calls ignored. When all i want is to talk to an authority. And they won't answer. Or return a call. I think they are irresponsible and if they were worried about the students safety and lives and wanted to make a positive difference then they would want the parent who is trying to be involved to let them be and involve them. I am trying to prevent disaster and they wont take any of the steps to help the situation. Instead they want to not include both parties of a situation. I am angry and disappointed."

"This is a very well rounded place for teenagers to thoroughly interact with one another. The teachers I had were very helpful and very educated. The counselors were very motivating and really wanted their students to graduate and succeed. I had an amazing high school experience. Definitely recommend this high school. Spirit week and culture week were by far the best weeks to be a student."

"Ah, Kearns high, dumping ground for Granite School District. Having graduated from the school, I know that there is a lot of good stuff here. I am also very aware of the reputation that Kearns High brings, and acutely aware of how underfunded the public school systems are in Utah. For a state that professes to focus so much on family we sure don't spend our public funds that way. Kudos to the faculty who bend over backwards to make do with what they have. Kudos to the students who make the most of the situation they are in. Going to Kearns is not a life-long handicap, but it certainly is not the head start that some more affluent neighborhoods enjoy."

"Nice school with a lot of great people. It is in a scary neighborhood, but the school is a safe zone. The Community is rallying around the area and raising the quality of the area. Great programs led by good people."
