The schools in the Park City area exhibit a range of student demographics and funding levels. While the top-performing schools tend to serve more affluent and homogeneous student populations, some schools with higher percentages of non-White and economically disadvantaged students, such as McPolin School and Parley's Park School, have lower test scores compared to their higher-performing counterparts. This suggests that factors beyond just funding and staffing may be driving the differences in school performance across the Park City area.
