Over 100 ninth-grade World Studies students visited the Krishna Temple this past week.  The students were able to experience a buffet lunch, tame the llamas, feed the fish, stretch their muscles with yoga, and learned about another culture. 

Thank all the people at our own local Krishna Temple for your wonderful hospitality and generosity.  The students will never forget their experiences there!

Our golf team is in full swing.  Spanish Fork Junior High has some very talented golfers.  None of them are like Tiger Woods, (no one can be that good), but we have kids who know what they're doing when it comes to golf. 

Goal! Spanish Forks Girls soccer team has done it again!  The Dons JV soccer team just finished off an amazing season.  They had 11 wins, 1 tie, and 1 loss.  They have four great coaches led by head coach Dennis Gillie.

Four Lady Dons are from from Spanish Fork Junior High! They are, Taylor Jones, Lauren Roberts, Bailey Smith, and Adah Tuttle.   Each of them plays an important position on the team.  Taylor plays midfielder, Lauren ,Bailey, and Adah play forward. 

Excited for this year’s P.E?  You defiantly should be!  The PE is a great way to get moving after sitting through all those other class.  Some might think P.E. isn’t important, but actually it’s one of the most important classes you’ll take!

For those of you that do not know, Spanish Fork High School holds an annual Powder Puff football tournament.  The Powder Puff tournament features the girls playing flag football and the boys providing the half time entrainment.  This year’s tournament was both entertaining and competitive.

The SFJH Lobo cross country team has competed in another amazing race and done well. On Friday the 28th of September, they competed against the Payson and Salem teams.  They ran around the Salem Jr. High, including the athletic fields, two times for the mile and one half course.  The girls ran first then the boys.  They were excited to run. 

The Drama Club went to the Renaissance Fair held earlier this month up in Provo Canyon at Timpanogos Park , to practice their Shakespeare routines in front of a crowd. They did a great job preforming.  This opportunity helped them get ready to go to Cedar City this month.

The Renaissance Fair showed club members what life was like during the middle age for the peasants and rulers.

Spanish Fork Jr. High was a multicolored mix of animal and plant cells when students from Mr. Hallam's Biology class drew “Cell Art” around the school.

Students got to choose what type of cells they would draw: animal or plant. There were many types of cells on the sidewalks, and lots people noticed them because of their large size and bright colors.  The cells had all the necessary organelles from the mitochondria to the chloroplasts.

Mr. Nelson has been talking about numbers for the past 26 years.   He came to this school to teach math, and has never wanted to leave.  This year he is only teaching 7th grade math but has taught 8th and 9th grade math too.   He really enjoys arithmetic!

Lying comes easily to some but harder to others. As human beings we are cursed.  We use lying in our everyday lives. Like food and water, some people survive on lying. For some, it has gotten them either further in life; for others it’s gotten them nowhere. Check your self; have you ever ignored the truth to tell a lie?
