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.

American Fork Junior High is a great school. The teachers are very communicative and helpful when things get hard. I've gone through some pretty hard times, and my teachers have helped me work through it. I've also met some of my best friends at the school. The kids here are really good people. The staff is good too. When I would be struggling, I could go to my counselor, or even one of the assistant principals and they would help me. It is a very good school.

The teachers at American Fork are amazing! Not only do they care about academics but they care about the individuals at the school. They value all opinions and treat everyone fairly. The culture at American Fork is awesome too. People there also care about you and who you are.

Well run school w/an amazing leadership staff. Their best math teacher (Ms. Dallin ) is leaving this year, which is so sad because if there is any place this school lacks, it's the math department. Otherwise, wonderful principal & staff.
