March Madness

Suppose 48 out of every 120 people like watching March Madness. Of the people who like watching March Madness, 3 out of 5 actually play basketball. If you ask 500 people, how many would you expect to play basketball?

Spanish Fork Jr. High FFA students attended the 94th State FFA Convention. Students participated in workshops and supported high school FFA competitors in various competitions.

Sydney Jensen and Kynlie Wride, students at SFJH, recently attended a training at Kohler Dairy in Midway to prepare them to present to over 600 2nd graders in April.

SFJH FFA students recently competed at the Deseret Peak Invitational in Livestock Judging, Floral Contest and Agriculture Mechanics.

These students plan to compete at the state level at the end of April.

“The long-distance crew for track killed it yesterday in our first run together,” reports Melissa Kay, one of SFJH’s intrepid track coaches with specific responsibilities over the long-distance runners.

In Mr. Mortimer's science class, students took pictures of spinach leaves. They were able to find the "mouths" of the leaves called stomata. This is where gas exchange occurs that helps aid the miracle of photosynthesis.

Today, with the help of the Spanish Fork Police Department, SFJH students participated in an emergency lock-down drill.  Teachers instructed students on the procedures for their particular classroom, then practiced those procedures while the SFPD walked the halls with their K-9 companions.
