They have such great programs for the kids

Can not say enough great things about this school! Parleys Park is outstanding! Excellent school - small class size and very involved parents. The teachers work together and really know the kids. The results show in very strong test scores. The arts programs are incredible. From the administration to the hall monitor, you won't find any better; they are accessible to parents and other members of the school community and respond to their concerns. Mr. Flynn (school principal) establishes high expectations for academics and behavior, and does everything possible to attract and support high-quality teachers. Mentchoukov Family.

About the tests


In 2009-2010 Utah used the Utah Criterion-Referenced Test (CRT) to test students in grades 1 through 11 in language arts, in grades 1 through 7 in math, in grades 4 through 9 in science and upon completion of certain courses in grades 8 through 11. The results displayed on GreatSchools profiles are for all grades combined for each subject. The CRT is a standards-based testing program, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Utah. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
