It was a special night as the Jordan School District Board of Education honored members of the 2023 class of retirees. The Board sponsored a special dinner for retirees and recognized the various employee groups, thanking them for their years of service supporting students and education in the District. South Jordan Middle School teacher Lauryn Macedone performed, singing several beautiful numbers, accompanied by her husband James on guitar.

This year, Lynda Peterson is the longest serving retiree with 44 years working in Jordan School District as a teacher. The 2023 class of retirees spent a total of 2,167 years in education.

Congratulations and thank you for your dedication and countless years of service! Your hard work serving students throughout Jordan School District has made a lasting impression on young lives. Best of luck in your retirement.

They are heartfelt messages of appreciation written by students throughout Bingham High for every single teacher at the school. During a recent “Teacher Appreciation Week” breakfast, Principal Rodney Shaw and other members of his team, surprised teachers by delivering the hand-written, personalized cards to every educator in the room.

Students decided which teacher or teachers to whom they wanted to send a message of thanks and appreciation. Some teachers received dozens of cards. Students wrote a total of 3,300 personalized cards to let teachers know how much of an impact they have on the lives of students at Bingham High.

Way to go Bingham High School students!

She cultivates positive relationships with her students each and every day and her classroom is a magical place. Those are just a few things colleagues say about Bingham High CTE/Business Teacher Andrea Call. Her students will tell you she is one of the best teachers they have ever had and some say her class changed their lives.

Andrea Call is an incredible educator devoted to the success of students in her classroom and that is why we ask everyone to join us in congratulating Ms. Call as Jordan School District’s “Teacher of the Year.”

Principal Rodney Shaw says Andrea Call goes well above and beyond what is expected of her in and outside the classroom. Andrea Call is an inspiration to those who know her and we couldn’t be more proud to have her represent Jordan School District in the state “Teacher of the Year” competition.

Keep up the incredible work, Andrea Call! Best of luck with the state competition.
