Did you know that DFJHS has a dream team?  It's true!  The dream team at Diamond Fork is a group of 8 students who assist the school in promoting our core values of courage, integrity, compassion, perserverance, and respect.  We greet new students and show them around the school, we help prevent bullying in the hallways, we highlight student's birthdays at lunch, and we are even hosting a "Jumble It Up At Lunch Day" on February 6th.
