As we continue celebrating the incredible leaders of our school, we're excited to spotlight Jandy Stelter, who has spent 7 years here and 22 exciting years in education.

One of Jandy's favorite parts of her role is getting to watch students, families, teachers, and even herself continue to grow and learn. She believes there's always something new to discover, and that's what makes education so rewarding.

Outside of school, Jandy loves spending time with family, traveling to new places, and cheering on the Green Bay Packers. And if you stop by her desk, don't be surprised to find her favorite collection: far too many lip glosses! 😊

Jandy's message to our families is a reminder to embrace the things that bring you joy. Whether it's singing along loudly to your favorite songs, talking to animals, or finding your own reasons to smile, she hopes you make time for a little fun every day.

Thank you, Jandy, for your positivity, leadership, and commitment to our school community! πŸ’œβœ¨

We're continuing our celebration of the incredible leaders who help make our school such a special place to learn and grow. Today, we're spotlighting Merilee Gandy, who has been part of our family for 10 years and has spent 15 years in education.

One of Merilee's favorite parts of her role is supporting students through challenges and helping them recognize their own potential. She loves seeing the moment when a student realizes they have a team behind them that believes in them and knows they can do hard things.

When she's not at our school, you'll find her crafting, coloring, reading, trying new foods, or exploring new places. One of her favorite desk items is a set of meditation beads handmade by a coworker, which help her stay centered and focused throughout the day.

Her educational philosophy is simple but powerful: compassion and kindness are at the heart of everything she does.

Join us in thanking Merilee for her dedication to supporting, encouraging, and believing in our students every day! πŸ’œβœ¨

October is National Principals Month! 🍎

This month, we're celebrating the dedicated leaders who help make our school such a special place to learn and grow. First up is Dr. Mollie McBroom, who is in her third year at our school and has spent an incredible 27 years in education.

What does she love most about our school? Making a difference in the lives of students, families, and staff every day. She is passionate about helping students overcome challenges, achieve their goals, and discover what they're capable of accomplishing.

When she's not supporting our school community, Dr. McBroom enjoys spending time with her family and dogs, traveling, exploring new places, and tackling projects around the house. And here's a fun fact: her children still love to prank her with hidden surprises and desk makeovers, keeping her on her toes!

Join us in thanking Dr. McBroom for her dedication, leadership, and commitment to our students and families. πŸ’œ

On October 2nd, students and faculty had the opportunity to visit pumpkin patches across the state of Utah. πŸŽƒ

Our first field trip of the year was a huge success, with more than 450 students and faculty signing up to attend one of three locations! πŸ‚

Field trips are more than just getting out and exploring. They're a wonderful way for students and faculty to connect, build community, and make memories together. πŸ’œ

We’re so glad to see such great participation and can’t wait for the adventures still to come! 🍁✨
