The Utah County Health Department recently sent out a letter to all schools in Utah County.  Please take a minute to read over it and follow its guidelines. We want kids to be healthy at school, thanks for your cooperation. 

We love our Student of the Month breakfast. It is such a great experience to listen to teachers and parents share wonderful things about students. We recognized thirteen amazing students this morning as we gathered in our library. The Fine Arts department nominated students as well as our Character Ed class. Thanks to the following students for going above and beyond what is expected. Thanks to the parents for raising such awesome kids and sending them to Diamond Fork.

7th Grade: Carter Brandon, Joshua Udy, Tehanu Artmstrong, & Suzanne Jones

Here are some photos of the class murals students created in Art. The first is supposed to be like stained glass. We love seeing the colorful reflections on the walls and floor when the sun is shining through the window. Students were given one small piece of a famous artwork and were instructed to recreate the lines they saw. They did not know what artwork they were creating, what pieces were going to be next to them or what colors to color (except in the Great Wave). It's fun seeing them all assembled.

A big thank you to Mr. Claybaugh and his LIA students who sponsor our Make-A-Wish service project every year. 

Our wish child, Ryver, loves princesses. At our Make-A-Wish Assembly she was thrilled to meet Miss Spanish Fork and her attendants. 

Two police officers from the canine training unit demonstrated the use of police dogs today at the Make-A-Wish Assembly. Mr. Mohler's father, Cory Wride, was killed in the line of duty five years ago this week. His partner who was also shot but survived was one of the police officers who came today. To honor their bravery and thank them for their service, the students gave the police officers a standing ovation. 

Team Time came up with challenges for their teachers to fulfill if we raised over a thousand dollars. Today at our Make-A-Wish assembly, they fulfilled challenges for the cause. We had dyed beards, shaved beards, river dancing, taratula holding, 44 oz. pop chugging, duct taping, motorcycle riding, dance offs, wig wearing, and more! It was a fun day where we celebrated granting a wish! See lots more photos on our Official Diamond Fork Facebook or Instagram page. 

What a wonderful wish week! Students wore PJ's, danced at the ball, and donated to teacher challenge jars. Today, Mrs. Orr from Make-A-Wish came to our assembly to accept a check for over two thousand dollars. Thank you to our Diamond Fork students and community for helping grant a wish for children like our wish child Ryver!
