I do not recommend this school. It is very sad to witness…read morehow much this school has declined. The middle school experience has been especially disappointing. The teachers often come across as rude and seem more focused on enforcing dress code policies than providing quality education and meaningful lessons. The school also does not reflect the Christian values and kindness it claims to promote. Everything seems centered around money, and some wealthy families appear to receive special recognition not because of their children's achievements, but because of their financial donations to the school. Overall, this has been a very discouraging experience for our family.

The classes assign an excessive amount of unnecessary homework without providing any real…read moredifference in instruction compared to standard honors classes at most high schools. The only noticeable distinctions are the heavier workload, limited opportunities for social interaction during the day, and additional fees--for example, charging $75 just to allow casual dress, despite already paying a substantial tuition. Even chapel, which should be a central part of the school's identity, only takes place once every other week. Families like mine are investing in this school expecting consistent spiritual growth, not minimal engagement. There needs to be a stronger commitment to both academic balance and faith-based education.

After my son had transferred schools from another local middle school, he was proud to call this school his, as the teachers hold ceremonies and assemblies to take very serious subjects and inform the students what to do in these situations, which I was very surprised to see his last school did not. The only thing about this school is it's Math and English program. It makes little sense that a student should have two hours of English when, first of all, half of it is used to read a book, and when their math rating is so LOW. If they could find a way to round out that time this review would be five stars. Go Scorpions!

And I would STRONGLY advise this comment should be read if you are interested in enrolling your child. I have witnessed many students being bullied to the point of suicidal thoughts and the teachers do absolutely nothing. The community in general are actually not the nicest people anyway. Also, there is not currently a nurse?? My younger brother is in seventh grade and nearly everyone isn't doing that well academically. Also, I've noticed some of the staff seemed to not care that much due to how much students they have. When I was here, only one staff member actually checked up on me and my friend (nope not the counselor) I remember I was doing very bad in math and not the best grade in ELA, both of the teachers were late to the student conference (and left early) that I had scheduled a week before, rude much. Also, they have a very interesting mindset, especially counselors, they would constantly guilt trip and gaslight me and my parents into constantly putting me in honors (which was definitely not a good idea) just add one more thing. This school is HUGE along with Chaperel, which it feeds into. So I don't entirely blame the teachers for being overwhelmed. But yet again, this is the job they signed up for, and they must have proper work etiquette. There is also a problem in eighth grade with pressuring into vaping and teen s*x which is not managed as much as it should. A lot of the kids there are a very bad influence. (and I'm not trying to be a saint, it's genuinely bad.) they should also be a bit stricter on the dress code, I mean, you can wear practically anything, and a lot of people bullied because they don't have a certain (expensive) clothing item. I know this is long, but it's very important and I could add a lot more. My family certainly got fed up with it and we switched in the eighth grade. I would overall not recommend this school sorry if this offended anyone. (one more thing, READ THIS apparently this school doesn't do much of a background check on its teachers since they literally hired someone who was addicted to child p*rn and g*re (shout out to Michael Gill I hope you rot in jail )

Teachers who attempt to intimidate the children and parents in meetings then get shown proof of their lies and manipulation and "Mr. Shrimp" principal goes "shocked" faced and pretends it's all new to him. Teachers who literally hate kids and treat them like crap are teaching here. Lazy and never update grades in their "awesome" app and when asked why they aren't up to date, blame the kids. Constant emails that go unanswered. Teachers giving excessive homework with unrealistic due dates (some with so much work that has to be "done only in class") and give no time in class to do it so kids have to give up their lunch and after school to complete it. Kids in tears because it's too much and teachers expectations are absurd THEN don't put the grades in the grade book because they "can complete it on their own schedule" causing kids to stress out and are upset their grades look like failing grades. SUSD has dropped the ball here and I will tell everyone every chance I can what a sh*tty school this is.

The office staff is rude and unhelpful, and the admin in charge of student activities (including clubs) is extremely unhelpful and refuses to permit the formation of certain clubs claiming "there are already too many clubs," Unless they like the student who proposes the idea of a new club. Most staff, play by favorites, which is inevitable at all schools, but its very extreme here. If you try to bring your child lunch or DoorDash it, the office staff will refuse to inform your child, and security will eat your child's food. Although the school's lunch may fill hungry stomachs, I doubt the lunch has any nutritional value in it. The school's lunch is soggy, burnt, and cold. Office staff and security are more worried about your child being on their phone rather than their students being bullied and neglected by teachers. Culinary's budget was cut in half the 2025-2026 school year, and now going into the year 2026-2027, they completely got rid of the class. Early Childhood Education's budget also got cut and could no longer operate the fake baby dolls that everyone loves and joined the class for. North canyon needs to realize how important these things are to the students. They "DON'T" have enough money for school supplies, but will drop thousands of dollars to put rocks all around the school and replace a football field. Not to mention, the school had a HUGE roach problem and refused to spend money to get rid of them. Instead, they carry cans of roach spray around on cleaning carts - which would not be needed if they called an exterminator. Education and safety is not the priority, accusing students of vaping in the bathroom is. Pretty pathetic school overall, North Canyon needs to get their priorities straight. PLEASE don't send your child here.
