Mountain Creek Middle School’s Jody Long Surprised with Prestigious Honor

It was a big surprise, one that Mountain Creek Middle School Assistant Principal Jody Long won’t soon forget. Principal Mike Glenn, along with students, teachers, and staff gathered as representatives from the state-wide ResilientYOU program presented Ms. Long with the 2024 ResilientYOU award.

ResilientYOU is a prestigious honor presented annually to organizations and individuals based on their exemplary efforts in building student resilience in their schools, homes and communities.

Award recipients will be honored on May 9th at an event called “Utah Prevention Day with the Salt Lake Bees” at Smith’s Ballpark in front of 10,000 students and teachers. Award recipients will also receive an honorary plaque.

Congratulations, Jody Long! Keep inspiring resilience in students and others in and outside of our schools.
