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 West Jordan High School drill coach Shayla Winder.

Here is what West Jordan High had to say about Coach Winder.

“Shayla exemplifies what a coach should be. As a transformational coach, the girls in her program graduate as better individuals, thanks to her love, dedication, and mentorship. Fierce and embodying all our values at West Jordan High School, she is tough yet loving and stern yet understanding. She sets high expectations and guides each dancer to achieve them through her own example. She has transformed many lives both on and off the dance floor. I aspire to be like Shayla someday!”

Thank you, Coach Winder for all you do for the students at West Jordan High!

They work tirelessly to make sure all students succeed and now Herriman High School, Mountain Ridge High School, an ML task force, and Language and Culture Services are being recognized for their hard work.

The State Board of Education honored both Mountain Ridge and Herriman High with a 2025 USBE Graduation Rate for Students Learning English Certificate. The two JSD high schools had graduation rates higher than the state average of 88% with more than 40 students learning English in their individual 2025 graduating classes. Mountain Ridge had a graduation rate of 89.09% for students learning English and Herriman High had a graduation rate of 89.87% for English language learners.

Congratulations to everyone for their hard work on school consultations, family engagement, celebrations of WIDA, and having such a significant impact on the families and students.
