Admission Information

Diamond Ridge High School offers a supportive and personalized learning environment primarily for high school students in grades 11th and 12th. With smaller class sizes, a strong focus on academics, and various community and academic resources, students who are willing to work have a much greater chance to graduate from high school, especially with the additional support in health, social services, and career readiness we offer. Our 24-credit diploma and access to Canyons Technical Education Center (CTEC) are also fantastic opportunities for students to develop both academically and professionally.

Juniors and Seniors can apply to Diamond Ridge High School and/or Entrada Adult High School by completing a “Unified Application” linked here and below.
