Students and Community Come Together for Big Chinese New Year Celebration

It was a night of culture and tradition as hundreds of students, teachers, staff, and members of the community all came together for the 2025 Chinese New Year Celebration hosted by Mountain Creek Middle School. This is the ‘Year of the Snake,’ which symbolizes wisdom, transformation, and growth in the 12-year lunar cycle calendar.

Students from Eastlake Elementary School, Herriman High School, and Bingham High School were all featured at the Chinese New Year Celebration. They took the stage in cultural performances, with dragon and lion dances, music, and much more. There were traditional crafts and games along with fabulous food for everyone to experience.

Congratulations to everyone for sharing such rich culture and lots of fun at a fabulous event!

West Hills Middle School Awards Good Behavior with a Fun Auction

It is a fun way to recognize and reward students throughout the semester at West Hills Middle School and it has become a big hit. During all three lunches, Assistant Principal Tim Brooks acts as auctioneer and holds an end of semester auction in the lunchroom. Students line up with their good behavior cards and purchase all kinds of fun items, even vinyl records, with the “positive paws” they have earned. The “positive paws” are used like money to bid on items students want at the auction and everyone, including the auctioneer, Mr. Brooks, has a great time celebrating students and their good behavior.

Keep up the great work West Hills Middle for finding ways to celebrate great students at your school!
