She was up against really tough competition on a national stage that included both middle and high school students. Join us in congratulating Rebecca Mcquire, a ninth grade South Jordan Middle School student, who recently took second place in the 2022 National Chinese Speech Contest. Rebecca was the youngest in the group and did an amazing job in the competition, which was conducted online over the weekend. Principal Nicole Johnson says Rebecca is a dedicated and well-versed student in the Chinese Dual Language Immersion program at South Jordan Middle and Rebecca’s teacher, HsiuMei Pitts, does a phenomenal job coaching and teaching her students.
We are proud of Recbecca Mcquire for her amazing accomplishment and thankful for incredible and dedicated teachers like Ms. Pitts! Keep up the great work.
It was a lesson in city government filled with fun, laughter and a lot of good information coming from a man who has a lot to share. Third grade students at Columbia Elementary School had a very special guest visit their classroom to talk about the workings of city government.
It was a day at the dentist inside West Jordan Middle School. Students from across Jordan School District were provided free dental and preventative care thanks to a group of volunteer dentists, dental assistants and dental hygienists who came together in the gym at West Jordan Middle using high tech mobile dental equipment to see patients. The group called TeamSmile was prepared to provide full dental work on site for students in need, including exams, x-rays, screenings, cleanings, fillings, extractions and root canals.
