The Lehi Free Press archives highlight several significant educational and community achievements within the Lehi area. These reports cover topics ranging from school district decisions to local student successes in arts and athletics.
In recent educational developments, the Alpine School District Board of Education voted unanimously to name a new elementary school currently under construction in northwest Lehi. This school was announced as part of a plan to open in time for the 2019-2020 school year, which includes boundary changes for the district.
Local schools have also received various honors. Kerry Hundley of Lehi Elementary was named Rookie Principal of the Year by the Utah Association of Elementary School Principals. Additionally, Lehi Junior High was recognized by the Family Council of Utah for its efforts regarding youth inclusion and mental health awareness.
In the realm of extracurricular achievements, both Skyridge and Lehi High School Color Guard teams secured State Championships in their respective rankings. Skyridge notably earned its third consecutive State title.
Community support and involvement also play a role in local education. The Alpine School District Foundation held a dinner at Lone Peak High School to honor three exceptional donors. Meanwhile, the Lehi High School Alumni Association has sought board members and donations to support the school, which was officially established in 1908.
Other local initiatives include parent night events hosted at Lehi Junior High with the National Alliance on Mental Illness and vocational training opportunities at Mountainland Technical College in Lehi.
