Spanish Fork Junior High has a very active chapter of the Nation Junior Honor Society.  They are part of an organization of over one million students in all fifty states whose goal is to excel in the areas of scholarship, service, leadership, character, and citizenship.  NJHS is a service organization, ready and willing to help the community.  Our chapter adviser, Mr. Lawrence, already has our students serving.  Here is his report about their first service project on Saturday, August 27, 2016.

From Mrs. Harman

"My orchestra is currently featured in a commercial running on the Disney channel about the importance of music education.  A production team visited our class last spring and filmed us playing and they interviewed students.  Many SFJHS students are featured in the commercial, which runs at various times until 9/1.  Here is the link that is LIVE on Radio Disney Digital Platforms and the Radio Disney You Tube Channel featuring SFJHS!"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFOi4lGmKEo
