How good is Parkside Elementary?
Parkside Elementary earns a 7 out of 10 GreatSchools rating, which places it above average among Utah public elementary schools, on a newer, consolidated campus. Class sizes run about 25 students per teacher, on the higher side for the district, which is common at a school drawing from more than one former boundary.
Because Parkside is a relatively new school, some published test data still reflects the former Geneva and Suncrest schools rather than Parkside itself, so it is worth confirming current figures with the office when you tour. Ratings vary between GreatSchools, Niche, and the state, so treat any single number as a snapshot.

Orem is slated to join the new Timpanogos School District, alongside Lindon, Pleasant Grove, and Vineyard. School assignments are expected to carry over at first, but future boundary decisions will move to the new district.

Keep in mind that it replaced the former Geneva and Suncrest schools, so any listing that still lists those is pointing at the same modern campus, and some old test data may not reflect Parkside today.
