If you see them in that hall, give them a high five!
U.S. History students at Spanish Fork Junior High school participated in a field trip Friday, February 20. The honors class were special guests at the Naturalization Ceremony (new citizens are sworn in) presided over by United State District Judge Clark Waddoups at the new federal courthouse in Salt Lake City. Students were inspired by the emotional testimonials given by many of the new citizens as they shared their stories of immigration and citizenship.
SPANISH FORK, Utah — Students at Spanish Fork Junior High had a chance to experience hands-on Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) education during their career and college course. Tiffany Myers, Career, Technology, Education (CTE) instructor, demonstrated different healthcare concepts and careers in her class.
Using a STEM education kit donated by Central Utah Clinic and the Utah STEM Action Center, Myers gave her students a hands-on experience. The kit included materials considered to be luxury items or costly for teachers and schools to purchase.

The Valentine Problem
Sarah was told that she has a very special Valentine surprise hidden behind a brick in the wall of the school building. She puts a 25-foot ladder against the side of the wall, with the base of the ladder 7 feet from the building. After she climbs the ladder she finds that she needs to move it down 4 feet to reach the right brick. How far out did she move the base of the ladder?
