Thanks to Joe Anson and his Honors English students. They spent all day Friday in the library doing service. They worked hard and did a great job.
Mr. Huff Says they worked hard and had a good time also. They weeded books, put them in order, it took a long time.
Eighth grader Kate Baadsgaard was the grade level winner in this year's Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Essay Contest sponsored by the Utah State Office of Education. Kate and two of her family members attended a luncheon Wednesday, January 15, in the Hilda B. Jones Center in Salt Lake City where students were recognized for their award-winning entries.

During the ceremony, students were commended for their efforts in tackling this year's theme which centered on bullying and the famous quote by Dr.
Our newest teacher of the month is Mrs. Maureen Betts. Here is what some of the other teachers who nominated her had to say:
Kolton Dudley and Kyle Lunceford took first place in the Stock Market Game sponsored by the Utah State Office of Education. The students participated in the game as part of the Computers in Business class taught by Mr. Ferrin. In the game, teams of students are given a simulated $100,000 and are given 10 weeks to invest the money to try and have the highest amount of equity. Kolton and Kyle at the end of the game had $140,000 dollars in equity, which was more than the other 179 teams in the Junior High/Middle School division.
Eric Ferrin, a math teacher at Spanish Fork Junior High was presented with this month's PEAK award at the January Board meeting. The PEAK award is given to any employee in Nebo School District that demonstrates Positive Energy and Kindness, traits that the superintendent has been emphasizing during this school year. Mr. Ferrin is the first from our school to be honored with this award. Congratulations Mr. Ferrin!!!
