Parowan High stands out as the top-performing school in the area, ranking 16th out of 138 Utah high schools for the 2023-2024 school year with a 4-star rating. The school's test scores, particularly in English Language Arts and Science, are generally higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, Parowan High has a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and a lower student-teacher ratio compared to Parowan School, suggesting a more affluent student population and potentially more individualized attention for students.

In contrast, Parowan School may face some equity challenges, as its test scores, particularly in 3rd-grade English Language Arts, are lower than the district and state averages. The school also has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively less affluent student population. The funding disparity, with Parowan High spending $2,500 more per student, could be a contributing factor to the performance gap between the two schools.
