Last year Layton prep was an ok school but this year it's pretty bad. Things have been very unorganized since they switched locations like having our morning meeting in the middle of the hallway. The class size keeps growing when it's supposed to be a small school. the teahers are helping students less. Lots of students are failing. While innocent students get in school suspensions for small things, students who bully other students keep getting away with it and never get suspended. Everybody who goes there hates it including me which is why I'm going to a different school next year. This is why I do not recomend Layton Preparatory School!

The administration at this school has done an excellent job in creating a comfortable community to enrich learning in multiple ways including traditional methods as well as more progressive and unique approaches to education.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
