Members of the Herriman High School Latinos in Action led the Pledge of Allegiance at last night’s Board of Education meeting and celebrated their culture with a beautiful poem written by Darianna Faria, a Herriman High student. The poem expressed support for all students, encouraging those who have immigrated to the United States to never forget where they came from and to strive for a better world where all seek to understand one another. The poem went on to say all students who have immigrated from another country should be allowed to achieve their hopes and dreams.

Board members thanked the students for doing a great job representing Herriman High School and Latinos in Action.

Thank you to all of Jordan School District’s hard-working Nutrition Services employees who served up a Thanksgiving feast with a side of smiles in honor of the holiday, like they did at Westvale Elementary School. You made Thanksgiving special for students, teachers, and staff this year and we are filled with gratitude for the delicious food you prepare each and every day.

Happy Thanksgiving from everyone in Jordan School District. We hope you have a happy, safe, and restful holiday surrounded by family, friends, and loved ones.

It was a day devoted to celebrating Thanksgiving in a big way at Golden Fields Elementary School. First, students dressed up for a fun turkey trot up and down the halls of the school. Then they took the stage and sang their little hearts out as part of a Turkey Tunes assembly. Finally, the students had more fun in their very own version of a Golden Fields’ Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Everyone hand-made balloon characters and creative themes to float down the halls as part of the parade.

We are thankful for all of the teachers and staff who helped to make the Golden Fields Thanksgiving celebration one to remember.

Happy Thanksgiving from Golden Fields Elementary School!
