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 loved my time at Wasatch Junior High. There was a variety of different programs to cater to students' different interests. The teachers were exemplary.

This is our first year at Wasatch. We have been extremely pleased with the staff and teachers. We were accepted to 2 charters schools and what Wasatch offers exceed any of them. The obvious choice was Wasatch. My child is doing great and loves every aspect of it.

Mixed. Student body is better than normal. Teachers and counselors care about their students. While nearly all teachers are well qualified, one or two, that we experienced with, are not competent. The leadership leaves much to be desired.
