DFJHS was represtend by some of our team captains at the annual Nebo School District Winter Captain's Academy. Students met together with other captains from similar sports from across the district for the morning training. Students heard from a physical therapist on ways to keep thier bodies free from injury and proper physical health. They also heard great stories and saw examples of what it means to be a leader and showing good sportsmanship. We are proud of not only those who attended buy in ALL of our Diamondback athletes!

Wow, DFJHS has some talented students. The school was able to witness a wonderful display of talent from their fellow students. Singing, magic, piano, dance, and not to mention our fabulous host's! We were all entertained before the Thanksgiving Break! Special thanks to Mrs. Poulsen and Ms. Yeager for putting it all together!

Because of the amazing support of our students, community, and faculty the food drive was a huge success. Our school raised over 30,000 food items, more than 150 blankets and sleeping bags, and over $3,000 for our local food bank. We easily surpassed our school goal of raising 25,000 food items.The food bank would like to sincerely thank everyone at our school for participating, and a special thank you to all those fun-loving, competitive faculty members who make our school's food drive such a good time.
