It was all smiles and high energy as Bingham High School students and staff gathered for a fun and entertaining Homecoming assembly. The assembly kicks off Homecoming week at Bingham High School and featured cheerleaders, talented dancers, Bingham traditions, games, and amazing performances.

The week of fun and excitement concludes with the big football game on Friday night and the Homecoming dance on Saturday. The theme of this year’s dance is “Homecoming, Do You Remember?”

Happy Homecoming Bingham Miners!

They became fast friends after being introduced during a recent school event. Now, Jordan Ridge Elementary School students are taking kindness to new heights hoping to help their new friends at the neighboring Kauri Sue Hamilton School. Kauri Sue is a school for special education students with severe needs and kids at the two schools felt a fast connection.

Because of that connection, Jordan Ridge students ran laps for their own school today, and on behalf of Kauri Sue students, at the PTA sponsored Jogathon held indoors due to rain. They are raising money for Jordan Ridge Elementary and hope the community will donate to support the Kauri Sue Hamilton School. Jordan Ridge students simply want to make sure their friends with special needs feel the communities’ love and support, both in and outside the classroom.

Jordan Ridge Elementary is reaching out to people and businesses in the broader community for help to achieve their act of kindness, encouraging them to make a donation to Kauri Sue (through the Jordan Education Foundation) so they can show the students with special needs how much they care.

Way to go Jordan Ridge Elementary School on making your Jogathon a big win for everyone!

It was a morning to honor and remember at Sunset Ridge Middle School as students gathered in moving ceremony to observe Patriot Day. They held a flag ceremony and joined in remembrance to honor the individuals who lost their lives in the terror attacks on September 11, 2001.

Sunset Ridge Middle students, teachers, and staff want to make sure all the brave, selfless heroes who tirelessly defend our freedom every day are recognized and those who have lost their lives for our freedoms are never forgotten.

It is a day to engage and inspire people to serve in whatever way they can. The National Day of Service is Wednesday, Sept. 11 and it is a great way for everyone to come together for the benefit of others.

Over the weekend, the Jordan Education Foundation got a head start on the National Day of Service collecting food for students who may otherwise go without breakfast and lunch, or meals on the weekend. Thanks to the generosity of many community members, large food donations were collected at two drop off sites, West Jordan High School and Juniper Elementary School. All of the food will be delivered to schools to fill Principal’s Pantries and made available to any student in need.

Thank you to those who donated to support students! We are proud to be a part of this amazing, kind, and caring community.
