It was a night to celebrate and applaud the many great things happening with students and staff at West Hills Middle School. At the recent Jordan School District Board of Education meeting, Ashlyn Strasser, a student body officer at West Hills Middle, talked about the pride students and staff take in West Hills Middle School. Ashlyn said everyone is embracing a new campaign at the school this year called “No One Sits Alone.” She said it is a campaign designed to help all students feel welcome at West Hills, encouraging them to make new friends in places like the lunchroom.
Ashlyn also expressed appreciation for the no cellphone policy which she said is helping students have more face-to-face conversations and is resulting in fewer distractions in the classroom. Ashlyn concluded by talking about efforts on the part of West Hills to post positive stories on social media, helping to build connections and making students feel a part of the school.
The West Hills choir performed a selection under the direction of choir teacher Michael Draut.
West Hills students were invited to shake hands with Board members at the end of their presentation. Keep up the great work students and staff at West Hills Middle.
