College and Career Readiness (CCR) Day is Wednesday, February 2, and we are arranging for scholar families to visit with their Advisor, engage with table presenters, visit with a guest speaker, take home a goodie box, and grab a to-go tray. This event is by appointment only so please call 435.678.1281 or 435.678.1888 if you need to be scheduled.
Also, most scholars will take the Olweus Bullying Prevention Survey in February. Parents can see the questions by visiting www.obqsurvey.org with these credentials:

Please email or call Mr. Gosney (dgosney@sjsd.org or 435-678-1254) with questions.

The Utah State Board of Education (USBE) and the Utah State Legislature are partnering to reexamine the state’s school accountability system because the state is seeking to build a new accountability system. This will impact how schools are graded.
For this work to be successful, the state needs to hear from the public, especially educators, parents, and scholars. The survey will be open until February 18, 2022, and only takes 10 minutes. We hope you will provide input using this URL: http://ow.ly/evcU50Hy8zs
