The best part about Rocky is that the teachers really care about you and want you to achieve your goals. The worst part is that it is a really small school so there isn't a lot of chances to meet new people because you know everyone already. Something that I hope would to see change would be having someone talk to you about the classes that you could take for the career you want to go into.

I really love going to Rocky Mountain! My experience here has helped my confidence. Small schools aren't for everyone but it is definitely for me! I am so close to all of my teachers and coaches. They are all willing to help me with anything I need. I love it here!

I like how little this school is and how all of the students are close. The teachers and staff are all friendly and know everyone. There is nothing bad or unsanitary about the school. It is well taken and beautiful.

I graduated from this school. As a non-Mormon I felt outcast, unwanted and was often friendless. I wouldn't recommend sending you child here unless you subscribe to the Mormon faith.
