This week, Jordan School District would like to #ThankACoach at each of our six UHSAA Member High Schools for the amazing work they do. A great coach is about more than just winning games. They teach skills, build character, and grow community in their schools. Today, we recognize Herriman High School girls’ wrestling coach Josh Tibbs.

Here is what Herriman High had to say about Coach Tibbs.

“Josh Tibbs has built a top-tier girls’ wrestling program at Herriman High School, defined by its student-focused culture. This environment prioritizes more than just wrestling technique; it’s a space where athletes develop character and lifelong skills that benefit them long after graduation. Coach Tibbs’s commitment is evident in his active presence—you’ll often find him building relationships with students before and after school or during lunch, actively encouraging new athletes to join his program. He coaches with an infectious positivity, which is the foundation for the meaningful and positive relationships he fosters with every athlete.”

Thank you, Coach Tibbs, for all that you do for the Mustangs at Herriman High!

Some classrooms on wheels made their way to kindergarten and first-grade students at Antelope Canyon Elementary School on Tuesday. That’s because school bus drivers are on a mission to make this school year as safe as possible, teaching students how to get on and off the big yellow school bus safely and much more.

At Antelope Canyon students watched a fun safety video inside, then headed outside where they practiced boarding and exiting the school bus and learned the importance of staying seated while on the bus with hands on their laps and feet on the floor. They also learned why they should always stay in the driver’s line of sight and never run behind the bus. Finally, the students participated in emergency evacuations and found out how to cross safely at a crosswalk.

School bus drivers are talking to elementary school students across Jordan School District and hope the personalized safety lessons will save lives.

Thanks to our school bus drivers and Transportation safety education team. Keep up the great work.
