Food Truck Round-up in Literature Circles

Submitted by bart.thompson on

Mrs. Nielson's Reading Classes finished up their Literature Circles today with a "Food Truck Round-up." Students were asked to create a business plan, theme and design for a food truck.  Some students even chose to provide samples of their food!  What a fun way to finish their unit!

Our National Junior Honor Society students recently have been coming in during E-times to knit hats to be donated to a children's hospital.  It's a great chance for our students to give back to our community!

Diamondbacks Score Wins to Open Season

Submitted by bart.thompson on

The Boys' and Girls' Basketball teams opened their seasons on Tuesday at home against Canyon View Jr High (Orem).  Both teams came up with victories, but in two VERY different ways!

The Lady Diamondbacks led from the start, outscoring their opponents 67-9. It was an absolute team effort as every member of the team was able to contribute to the team win!  Way to go Ladies!

We are into Week 2 of our 23rd Annual Food Drive, and things are going well!  After Week 1, Mrs. Reynaud's class is in the lead with Mr. Evans' and Mrs. Antares' classes not far behind!

This afternoon, our Leadership Class set up a table in front of Macey's to gather donations from patrons coming and going from the store!  Way to go, Diamondback Leaders!

It's not too late to help! We will continue to gather canned goods (and cash donations) through the rest of this week!

Mrs. Nielson and Mrs. Antares took our Girls Who Code Club to the University of Utah on Friday for a tour of the various programs and research facilities available to students.  The girls were able to meet and interact with students, grad students and faculty who have chosen STEM fields for their careers!  It was a great trip!
