For some students it is the experience of a lifetime and something they will never forget. About 5,000 Jordan School District 4^th graders were treated to a concert by the Utah Symphony Orchestra, performing at Copper Hills High School. The 87 full-time musicians love to reach out to young students and show them how a love for music, hard work, and dedication to achieving goals can lead to great things. The Utah Symphony Orchestra is considered one of the top professional orchestras in the United States.

Thanks to the Utah Symphony for the beautiful music and inspiring young students to reach for the stars.

The Jordan Native American Program hosted “Roots & Wings: Preparing Native Youth for What’s Next.” More than a dozen local business leaders attended, representing a diverse array of industries, including welding, education, healthcare, and law, to network and offer advice to the youth in attendance. Herriman High School counselor Ashley Heaton presented information on scholarships and financial aid available for those looking to continue their education. Local colleges were on hand to provide resources and information about their schools.

Thank you to everyone who attended and donated their time, talents, and expertise to benefit Native American students in Jordan School District.
