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 would like to see more focus on the clubs and educational type experiences more than just the sports. I feel like all extra curricular activities should be supported equally.

The best part of Uintah High School to me are the amazing teachers we have here. They genuinely care about their students and are willing to help when help is needed. The worst part of our school is the casual way we take our education. It seems like so many kids don't take their education seriously.

The administration is ridiculous. They're only there to collect a paycheck and don't care about the students and also don't want fun to be in school. Would not recommend. I'm now in college and am very underprepared for the workload compared to the rest of the students in my classes.
