PCEF PROGRAM SUPPORT
The state of Utah ranks last in the country for per-pupil funding, and 96% of Park City's state-collected education tax dollars go to other school districts. Our schools don’t have the money they need for programs that district families have come to depend upon.
We fund eight key programs to inspire all Park City students to successfully reach their academic and lifelong potential. Within the eight programs, there are more than a hundred initiatives that have an impact on every single one of the 5,000 PCSD students.
The impacts of the pandemic means there are additional needs for our teachers and students - for both online and in-person learning. Thanks to donors, the Park City Education Foundation funds programs to ensure Park City students thrive, regardless of present challenges.
