Thank you for considering Diamond Ridge High School! Diamond Ridge High School is a ‘school of choice’ for students who want a different type of school environment and experience. As a unique program, Diamond Ridge operates under the same rules and expectations found in a traditional high school setting, while offering smaller classes, a 24-credit diploma, access to Canyons Technical Education Center (CTEC), credit recovery and academic skills support. With a focus on academics and career/college readiness, Diamond Ridge also works with community resources and programs to help students who may need physical and emotional health support, social services, youth development, community engagement and job supports. We have the resources to help students and families remove barriers to graduation. Our goal is for students to succeed!

- Complete all sections of the Unified Application and send a copy to apply@canyonsdistrict.org. Applications also can be personally delivered or mailed to Diamond Ridge HS, 9800 South 800 East, Sandy, UT 84094. Incomplete applications cannot be processed and will delay your student’s application.
