Families Have Fun Celebrating Spring at Jordan Child Development Center

It was a carnival-like atmosphere at the Jordan Child Development Center as children, their families and staff members came together for a fun Spring Festival. It was a pre-historic themed event with dinosaurs, fishing games, picture taking, color books and a big dinosaur egg hunt.

It was a festive way to bring everyone together for activities and ring in the new spring season.

Thanks to everyone involved in the Spring Festival for making it a night to remember for children and their families.

Students Enjoy French Language Fair and Have Fun Sharing Love of the Language

French Language FairIt was an event that brought students together from middle schools throughout Jordan School District and it came together thanks to some really talented teachers. The first ever Jordan School District Middle School French Language Fair was recently held at the Auxiliary Services Building auditorium. It was an opportunity for students studying French to gather, mingle, and get to know one another. There were cultural and academic activities, which teachers hope may motivate and inspire students to continue in the French language program.

Students enjoyed face painting, games, food, even a flash mob dance during the event.

Thanks to our amazing teachers for their creativity and bringing bright students together to learn, have some fun, and share their love of the French language.
