STARS Assembly!

Submitted by alesha.lemmon on

It is time for our school’s annual Talent Show, the STAR’S ASSEMBLY! This show is a chance for some of the STARS of Diamond Fork Junior to show off their talents. We welcome all types of talent: singers, dancers, instrumentalists, actors, martial arts, or whatever your talent may be.

We will also need an MC to host the show, so if you would like to audition for that, come prepared with a sample of how you would run the show.

When it comes to lending a helping hand or taking the time to really get to know students, Mr. Peterson comes to mind. He is one example of our mission to think critically, live responsibly and lead ethically. On this particular day, he helps our office aids update the marquee. Thank you, Mr. Peterson.

Zombie Apocalypse on October 31st!

Submitted by alesha.lemmon on

Have you heard? The Zombie Apocalypse came to DFJHS and the Girls' PE classes SURVIVED! Girls' PE teacher Kasey Larson set up a "Zombie Obstacle Course" in the gymnasium where girls had to race through virtual darkness and avoid being overtaken by the zombies throughout the course. The girls were frightened and thrilled at the same time and all made it through! Thanks to Miss Larson for her innovative ideas to keep students moving!
