Has this ever happened to you? You’re walking down the hall with an armful of books for your next class. You turn the corner and all of a sudden someone come crashing into you sending all of your papers flying. Without hesitation the student bends down and immediately starts to help you pick up the papers.  This happens all the time at Diamond Fork Jr. High.  I am not meaning the crashing into each other, I’m talking about helping out each other.  Diamond Fork has 5 core values that not only the students focus on but also the teachers and administrators.

The end of the school year brings about many changes, and it is time to welcome our 7 new student council members.  They are Nyah Heber president; 9th grade representatives Katie Funk, Anthony Tai Palepoi, and Hannah Taylor; and 8th grade representatives Ladd Davis, Josh Judkins, and Kacey Melton.

These 7 new members of the Diamond Fork Junior High student council will be attending the Dixie Leadership Conference in St. George this summer to begin planning their awesome new school year.  Best wishes to Diamond Fork's 2014-2015 student council members!

Every month at Diamond Fork Junior High two students from the 7th, 8th, and 9th grades are selected as students of the month.  These students are nominated for their outstanding citizenship and hard work. Nominees are then voted on by the entire faculty.  The students of the month for May are:

7th Grade: Hannah Cary and Micah Eastwood

8th Grade: Hallie Stephenson and Rayce Tanner

9th Grade: Maricruz Alvis and Manuel Perez

Every year Diamond Fork Junior High provides a fitness day for all of its students.

This year’s Fitness Day will take place on Friday, May 23, 2014 during school hours.

On May 6th Diamond Fork Junior High School's National Junior Honors Society held its induction meeting for the new inductees and their parents at 5 pm in the library.
