The Utah Studies classes learned about Mountain Men and Explorers of Utah, by doing a speed learning activity. 

“Each student was assigned a Mountain Man or Explorer to ‘become’,” explained Ms. Terry.  “They learned about his life and accomplishments and then each student went to the other students to learn about each other.   It was a fun and active way to learn some interesting information about the mountain men and explorers who helped in the development of Utah.”

 From Our PTA: March Madness Fundraiser

State FFA Convention was a success! Fifteen students from SFJHS went to Cedar City to participate in leadership workshops and were recognized for their agriculture projects. Two of those students competed and won in their division of the Agri-Science Fair.

Our winners were:

Ashley Olsen took the prize in Animal Systems Division 1.  Her project was testing different turkey feeds to evaluate cost of feed per pound of gain.

The students in Mrs. Phillips' class celebrated Dr. Seuss Day this week!

Mrs. Philips explained, “We started out by reading books.”  Later students made Oobleck, and finally ate green eggs and ham.

Green eggs and ham!!?? 

And what in the world is Oobleck?  Guess we’ll need to read a bit to find the answer to that question.

Thanks for sharing your special day, students.
