When Principal Meredith Doleac stepped foot inside the new elementary school under construction in Herriman, she was impressed and excited about the progress being made. Ms. Doleac says there are beautiful views of the mountains, bright colors and big collaboration areas in the school, which is a modified Bastian and Golden Fields Elementary School design.

Construction is on schedule with cabinets now going in, painting taking place and the office area taking shape.

The new elementary school in Herriman sits on 12 acres of land at 14120 S. Greenford Lane. It is scheduled to open in the 2019-20 school year.

Students led by Herriman High School’s very own “Cupid,” Paul Myers, handed out roses to all the female students and staff this Valentine’s Day. Draped in a pink suit covered in white hearts, Paul carried buckets of roses and led a group of boys from all grades through the halls to make sure everyone who wanted a rose received one. Paul spent weeks preparing for Valentines by fundraising money to buy and prepare the flowers to be handed out. Paul says he hopes others will continue this tradition that was started a few years ago by some other students at the school.

Great job to everyone who helped make Valentine’s Day a special one at Herriman High School.
