FOOD DRIVE

Parents, students, and friends!

We are extending our January food drive into next week! Utah Community Action Services and Food Bank barrels are in the front lobby, let’s fill them up! The food bank is in high need at this time of year. Put your donation in your backpack the night before school so you don’t forget! Clean out your pantry this weekend and bring what you can to donate to those in great need.

Hope Week is here! On Hats for Hope Tuesday, students had the opportunity to say what gave them Hope, and add to the chain. On White Out Wednesday, we heard messages from the band Foreign Figures, who sang and gave the students messages for a lifetime. Coming up on Thankful Thursday, wear some crazy socks and show gratitude all day long. Remember to write a letter to someone during Pack Time!

Congratulation to Tanner Fraser, Kayla Huish, Bryce Harman, Erica Bramall, Cael Erickson, and Alex Christiansen!  They auditioned and were selected to be in the Utah All State Junior High orchestra.  This orchestra is for top students all over the state.  They will be performing on Saturday at Abravanel Hall with renowned composer Deborah Baker Monday conducting. 

Parents, Students, and Friends –

TERM 3 BEGINS!

Welcome to Term 3! We have a new semester and lots of new classes for students. This week is HOPE Week and we have fun things planned to remind us that when we make good choices, good things happen. We will not have Pack Time this week leaving time for 2nd period teachers to emphasize HOPE Week lessons on hope and what gives us hope. Pack time will resume next week.

NJHS APPLICATIONS

The SFJHS Girls Basketball team took on rival Diamond Fork Jr. last week in a heated competition. 

The game started slowly with the Lady Lobos scoring in the single digits during the first quarter.  Diamond Fork was a persistent competitor, shadowing the Lobos point for point, never far behind.
