Recently, Diamond Fork Junior High held their school play “Once Upon a Mattress.” This play is based on the famous fairytale "The Princess and the Pea." It all started with the young Prince Harry who did everything he could to find the right bride for himself.  His mother appeared as an impediment to stop him from marrying.  Eventually the Princess from the swamp, nicknamed “Fred”, came before Prince Harry as the perfect bride. Will Harry’s mother stop Prince Harry and Princess Fred from becoming man and wife?

The National Junior Honors Society (NJHS) of Diamond Fork Junior High recently held a Special Olympics service project inspired by the president of the honors society Jonathan Tanner. Special needs students were placed into groups of 3-4 and chose a country to represent.  Each of the NJHS students also picked a country and made individual posters for that student and their country so they could cheer on that student while competing in all of their events.

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 February are:

7th Grade: Elysia Martinez and Dallin Johnson

8th Grade: Jacklynne Calderon and Clark Tolbert

9th Grade: Seryn Martin and Korbin Bott

Mr. Anderson teaches many types of art classes here at Diamond Fork Junior High such as Art Foundations, Drawing, and 3D Art. Most students at Diamond Fork participate in the Art Foundations class before entering the Drawing or 3D Art classes.  Art Foundations teaches the basics of art from both drawing and 3D such as shading, color schemes, clay, ect.  After you complete the Art Foundations class you could choose to participate in either Drawing or 3D Art - depending on which you are more interested in.
