Wasatch reported on October 13 that the school recently completed a successful SEP week, supported by parent-provided dinners for staff during late-night conferences. The school is currently in fourth place in an attendance competition against Rock Canyon, Edgemont, and Canyon Crest.
The BARK focus for the current week is to Act Responsibly in the Cafeteria. Students can demonstrate responsibility by walking in the cafeteria, cleaning their area before recess, and staying seated while eating. Staff will award BARK points to students following these expectations. To support attendance, classes with the best attendance over the past two weeks earned treat parties, a celebration that will continue through October.
Scheduled events for Tuesday, October 13, include choir from 7:35 a.m. to 8:20 a.m., a BARK Celebration for Students of the Month from 2:30 p.m. to 3:15 p.m., a School Board Study Session at 5:00 p.m., and a School Board Business Meeting at 7:00 p.m. On Thursday, October 15, the school will host a First Grade Fall Walk and choir from 7:35 a.m. to 8:20 a.m. Friday, October 16, features a Student Council Meeting from 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and a School Community Council Meeting from 8:40 a.m. to 9:40 a.m.
Looking ahead, several field trips are planned, including a first-grade trip to Cornbelly's on October 20, a kindergarten trip to Jakers on October 27, and a third-grade trip to Thanksgiving Point on October 28. Other upcoming dates include the end of Term 1 and a professional development day for teachers on October 21, followed by Fall Break from October 22 through October 26.
