 Reminder - End of Second Term

Did you realize there are only eight school days left in this term after Christmas Break?  Please check with teachers to get any missing work gathered, completed and turned in. The holiday break provides extra time if needed, to make up school work that could help raise a grade.  Take advantage of the opportunity!

Ramsey Anderson got a $100 scholarship from Zions Bank from their “Pays for A's” program. She is pictured here with Mr. Christensen and Brian Halverson, the manager at Zions Bank in Spanish Fork.

Ramsey is a ninth grader at SFJHS.  Congratulations! 

The Patriot's Pen program sponsored by Veterans of Foreign Wars is designed to foster patriotism by allowing students the opportunity to express their opinions on democracy based on an annual theme. This year the theme is "The America I Believe In." SFJHS first-place winner, Conner Gates, also won the district competition and will be advancing to the state competition. If he wins state, he will be advancing to the national competition. Good luck, Conner!

On December 8, several of our girls went on a field trip to the  Advanced Learning Center (ALC) for  the Computer Science Education Week. They were able to watch a 3D printer in action and participated in the "Hour of Code" where they write code for an hour. It was a lot of fun and they had a great time!

The Boys Basketball team has continued their hot play of late.  After a tough game that they dropped against Mapleton, they have come back with two very impressive wins against Diamond Fork and a very good Springville team. 

Parents, Students and Friends –

 Penny Wars This Week ONLY!

This year’s Penny Wars will be the best ever! We are challenging each 2nd period class to bring as much silver change as possible and deposit it in your 2nd period collection. Then you can drop off pennies in the collections of other teachers to count against the silver. There will be collections in every classroom that has a 2nd period. This year’s Penny Wars collections will be donated to the Warm the Souls charity run by the Nebo Credit Union. Penny Wars starts Monday and run all week.
