First and second grade dressed up as 100 year-old ladies and gentlemen. First grade build cup towers out 100 cups and make necklaces. Mrs. Jorgensen decorated her door and her class wrote a poem.

Dear Parents,
Here are a couple of reminders for the upcoming week:
It’s Friends Friday and today we are spotlighting another of our great technicians - Mrs. Lexi Hill. Mrs. Hill is a favorite among students and teachers. She is reliable, smart and willing to fill in whenever necessary. She subs in classes, works one on one with students, runs small groups and endures the heat and cold for recess duty. She is amazing! We love Mrs. Hill.
What do you love to do on the weekend: Ride horses in the mountains and spend time with my husband.
Our fifth and sixth graders enjoyed a field trip on Thursday to the BYU Marriot Center to watch the Women’s basketball team take on the San Francisco Dons. This was an extremely fun field trip. We were right there, starting on the front row, the cheer squad was right in front of us and so was the action. The kids got crazy and dance just to see themselves on the Jumbotron. We were entertained by Cosmo and the BYU Dunk Team at half time. To make the experience even better, BYU played a great game and came out as victors.
