American Fork high school is a really great school for the years I've been going to. It's always felt like a home in a place where I can be to feel free to feel loved to gain experience and knowledge that all the kids later in life the teachers are always very supportive and helping every single way they can. They also give really good college and career readiness with many programs such as apprenticeships and CTE electives.

It was pretty mid. The Mormon/utah boy culture is very strong, but most people just keep to them selfs. Most of the teachers I had were either pretty good, or really good but they definitely have their bad teachers.

Amazing but disliked my sports coaches. I had a real good volleyball team though beside that experience.

This was a ok school but the school is more focused on passing students rather than teaching them. Teachers were also too strict and didn’t care about the students well being.

I have two children currently at American Fork High School and while high school is still high school, I am beyond impressed with the teachers and administrators at this school. I feel like we hit the jackpot when it comes to a public school that offers incredible extracurricular activities, really...
