Niche grades and rankings are calculated using dozens of public data sets and millions of reviews. Niche data scientists and user researchers rigorously analyze data and user opinions to assess the key aspects of K-12 Schools, Colleges, and Places to Live. Every month, millions of students and families use the Niche grades and report cards to find the right school or neighborhood.
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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

My child seems to be extremely happy with Desert Mountain. He is in kindergarten and raves about what he's learned that day. Since he is in such a young grade, they don't have many after school activities, or at least I've yet to hear of any. Also, trying to get in and out of the school/parking to pick up your child is a hassle as well.

This is the third school my kids have been to due to moving and it is by far their favorite. My kids love their teachers and are happy to go to school everyday.
We have been so blessed to have had two daughters go through Desert Mountain. We have LOVED their teachers. If you are looking for a well rounded experience and you want your children to have FUN while learning this is the place!!
Both my children love DME! They have had fantastic teachers, who have all been great at communicating with parents. We love the principal. He is always walking the halls, high fiving kids, and standing out front during drop off. You can tell he loves what he does and he cares about the school and th...
The front office staffs are lazy and unprofessionals. They seem hating their job. I feel it doesn't have much security to stop intruders to enter and go inside the school. The principle has poor manners and doesn't care for school appearance and security. It was so clean and nice until he came two y...
