The Orem High boundary and feeder schools
Central and southeast Orem neighborhoods feed Orem High. The school draws largely from Canyon View Junior High and parts of Orem Junior High, while nearby areas feed Mountain View and Timpanogos. The lines split within the city and can shift, so confirm your exact boundary before you rely on a feeder. Alpine School District’s school locator checks any specific address.
Note the district split ahead: beginning with the 2027 to 2028 school year, Orem, Lindon, Vineyard, and Pleasant Grove leave Alpine to form the new Timpanogos School District, which will run Orem High going forward. The attendance boundary itself is not expected to change, but the district name and administration will.
Homes in the Orem High boundary
Orem is fully built out, so the Orem High boundary is about established neighborhoods rather than new construction. As of July 2026 the area offers a mix of mid-century single-family homes, newer infill, and condos and townhomes near Utah Valley University and the I-15 corridor. Orem is generally one of central Utah County’s more attainable places to buy compared with the north-county cities, which makes this boundary popular with first-time buyers and families alike. Prices change over time, so treat any snapshot as a moving target.
