As we continue to recognize Jordan School District teachers during this Teacher Appreciation Week, Superintendent Godfrey has a message of thanks.
The Superintendent recently traveled to every single school in the District, recognizing Outstanding Educators along with the Jordan Education Foundation.
Enjoy this video showing the Superintendent as he travels from school to school offering sincere appreciation for teachers!
It was a magical night to remember as Kauri Sue Hamilton School special needs students gathered for the experience of a lifetime. Peer leaders from Riverton High School organized a springtime prom with lights, decorations, a DJ, dancing, pictures and refreshments for the special needs students to enjoy. The theme of the night was “Out of this World,” and to make the evening even more memorable, all Kauri Sue graduates were invited to attend. The graduates also had the chance to get all dressed up and dance to their hearts content.
Thanks to everyone involved for making this amazing night so wonderful for students.
As we continue to honor and say thanks to amazing teachers during this “Teacher Appreciation Week,” we have a special video tribute to some of the very best.
Teachers throughout Jordan School District were recently surprised by members of the Jordan Education Foundation with “Educator of the Year” awards. We went along to document the emotions and pride on the part of educators involved.
Watch this video and smile!

Please take the time to give Jordan School District teachers a big thank you this week as we celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week 2022!
This is a week for honoring teachers and recognizing the lasting contributions they make in the lives of students. We thank all JSD teachers for their kindness, generosity and patience working with students. We honor them for their dedication to the job and willingness to try new things.
We also want to thank our substitute teachers for the important work they do in our classrooms, supporting education and students throughout the District.
