The second half of the school year kicked off in a big way at Riverton High School. The Silverwolves arrived to cheers of support from their community as they entered the building. Among the community leaders greeting students were Jordan District Superintendent Anthony Godfrey, Principal Rochelle Waite, Riverton City Council members, State School board members, Riverton High PTSA, and representatives from the Riverton Police and Fire Department. 

Student body officers and cheerleaders also lined up to support their peers. Beyond the cheers and applause, students received a note of encouragement to have an amazing second semester.  

Thank you to everyone who came out to cheer on our students!

Students at Rose Creek Elementary are glowing with school pride. By exhibiting great behavior in school and living the school values, classes can earn trips to the “Glow Room.” The room is decked out for a party, complete with blacklights, decorations, highlighters, games, and fun music.

Showing behavior that represents the school values of R.O.A.R. (Respect, Own your actions, Act safely, Ready to learn), students earn tallies that add up to tickets to a party. The fun has led to students filling up their class “ROAR” boards with great behavior as fast as possible to get back to the glow room for some more fun.

Special guests from Brazil joined students in Ms. Mueller’s Portuguese dual language immersion class at Bluffdale Elementary School. The group of Brazilian students stopped by during their trip to Utah to share their culture and experiences growing up in a Portuguese-speaking country. They even brought some of their favorite candies and treats all the way from South America. Bluffdale students showcased what a day in an American school is like, bringing their new friends to lunch, English class, and recess to learn how to play American football. 

Thank you to everyone who helped bring two groups of students from across the globe together for an enriching cultural exchange for all involved.
