Our District
The Park City School District is located in the Wasatch Mountain resort town of Park City, Summit County, Utah, 32 miles east of Salt Lake City. The majority of the county's 32,000 people reside in Park City and the surrounding unincorporated area known as the Snyderville Basin, with the school district serving 4300 students. We currently have four elementary schools housing approximately 1900 students in grades Kindergarten through 5, one middle school (grades 6 and 7) and one junior high school (grades 8 and 9), serving nearly 700 students each, and one high school with a population of approximately 970 10th through 12th graders. The district also provides an education for several high school students in an alternative school setting.
Park City is a district known for its high performing students, skilled and dedicated staff, and up-to-date facilities. We aspire to provide each student an education that is as good as it gets anywhere in the nation. In June, 2006, nearly 280 seniors graduated from Park City High School, once again named Best High School in the State by the non-profit organization called Best of State. Park City High has also been named one of the top 200 schools in the nation by Newsweek magazine. Awards in academics and athletics, along with excellent programs for non-traditional students, make Park City an exemplary school district.
