9th grade students in Foods and Nutrition 1 class recently competed in a Grilled Cheese Wars Competition.  

Groups had to search for, or create, a recipe for a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich.  After making shopping lists and developing a plan, students came the next day ready to cook!

Boys Basketball: Spanish Fork vs Springville

Submitted by david.thacker on Fri, 01/11/2019 - 14:21

Within the first 5 minutes of the game, Spanish Fork had already scored 5 points! The crowd was cheering loudly even when we didn’t have the ball. Within the next 5 minutes, we had been fouled many times. One of our players hurt his back while trying to block the other team’s shot, but now he’s ok.

By half time, the score was 25-15; we were annihilating them. Springville had the ball and was taking it down. Number 3, Cade Olsen, stole the ball, ran down the court and made an awesome 3 pointer!

Goodbye, First Semester

Submitted by david.thacker on Thu, 01/10/2019 - 08:36
Woo-hoo! Only two more terms until school is out. First semester is ending, so hurry and make sure you have all of your missing assignments in. Hopefully, all of us have had a great first semester. Unfortunately, as all good things must come end, so does this. On Friday, there will be no school. On our day off, the most important thing to do is to sleep in. Make sure to make it a great day.  

On Monday, when we start back up and we do not know where or what we are doing, remember there is always someone there to help you figure it all out.
