On September 28, Ms. Warren’s CCA class started a project to design, develop, and manufacture a cereal box and commercial. They are also giving sales pitches to ‘convince’ their classmates to buy their product. This is a two week project that multiple students are saying is “The best school project we’ve done this year!”

Recently, the seventh grade Utah Studies classes had the opportunity to visit “This Is The Place Heritage Park.” 

 They were able to push handcarts, learn about Native American culture, go on a train ride and learn about Mountain Men. It was an awesome day learning more about Utah!

How do you show students that government is a huge influence on culture through –out the world?  With gummy bears, of course.

Mrs. Harmer's 9th grade geography classes were able to create different types of governments using gummy bears.  Some of the governments created included democracy, communist, anarchy, and monarchy.

The Spanish Fork Junior High Golfing Lobos were out on the links at Gladstan Golf Course in Payson on Monday October 9.  The team was there to compete in the district finals for golf. 

 Jackson Rhees, Noah Taylor, Bryce Bingham, and Kaleb Feland made up the Lobo team. 

 Our Team took 1st place with a combined score of 264, beating 2nd placed Salem by 15 strokes. 

 1st place overall was Jackson Rhees with a round of 78, followed by Noah Taylor in 2nd place with a score of 88. 

Eighth grade English students wrote letters to two separate companies last month: one offered a compliment while the other tactfully lodged a complaint about a specific product. Every day students are hearing from these companies thanking them for their feedback and praising them for taking the time to write an “old school” letter. So far, Mrs. Thompson’s students have received everything from trampoline covers to t-shirts, binder organizers, stickers, and coupons!
