GreatSchools Rating
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.

I was not impressed with the school as I feel that not too many teachers cared, and the administration was the worst. The school is diverse with many different ethnicities and culture. Administration needs to change so that teacher staff and parent involvement can change.

It's a good school but it has its ups and downs like most school's but the faculty really cares about us students and they want to see us succeed in school and outside of school and the teachers will always make sure that you have what you need and make sure us students are ready to be there and feel safe and welcomed the only negative thing about kearns is just when the gangs start clashing with each other.

Kearns High is a very welcoming school. The teachers are very kind and it's hard to dislike them. Many of the teachers actually went to Kearns High then came back to teach there!

I went to this school for my Sophomore and Junior year. I left for my Senior year only because my parents moved. So I am somewhat impartial, having the experience of high school from two different high schools. Kearns High School is a terrible school. Most of the problems come from the low income to...
