Daybreak Elementary School is getting an update as a new security door is being installed in the hallway connecting the school to the adjoining recreation center. This new door will allow the school to better function independently of the Daybreak Community Center during school hours and is scheduled to be completed before the school year begins.

New polycarbonate panels will also be installed around the running track to separate the fitness center from the gym below. The panels will still allow for circulation and airflow, but provide extra privacy between the fitness center and gym. This project is slated to be finished after the start of the school year.

Eight students from Jordan School District were invited to compete at the National SkillsUSA Leadership & Skills Conference. The competition is the largest gathering of America’s future skilled workforce and the ultimate recognition of excellence in career and technical education.

Special congratulations to Kate McAffee of Riverton High School, who took home the National Championship in the Customer Service category, earning 954 points out of a possible 1000.

Jordan PREP (Pre-Freshman Engineering Program) students became rocket scientists for a day. They spent time in class learning about the forces of rocket flight. Then they put their learning into action by transforming 2-liter bottles into rockets, complete with nose cones, fins, and fuel tanks filled with water and compressed air. Joel P. Jensen Middle School served as the launch site as students competed to see which rocket design would fly the farthest.

Jordan PREP is a summer program that engages students in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math)-based learning. The program spans three consecutive summers and puts students on track to earn a certificate from Salt Lake Community College before graduating from high school.
