KEN GARFF KEYS TO SUCCESS ASSEMBLY Was Held at SFHS The gym erupted with noise as students jumped to their feet cheering for one of their now-envied classmate. Spanish Fork High School has been working with the Ken Garff Keys to Success program for the past seven years, and each year one lucky student gets the chance to win the grand prize. Throughout the year students are given the opportunity to earn Key Cards for goals that they set with their teacher or for academic achievement. Each key card can be redeemed online for a ton of different prizes. Finally, at the end of the year, the school has a massive drawing and 50 students get the chance to be in the Keys to Success assembly. This year the grand prize was a brand new iPad! Out of the 50 students whose key cards were drawn, five got the chance to turn a key and sound the alarm that signals victory. This year the five finalists were Leslie Beck, Benson Wood, Kyle Hutchings, Kelton Davis, and Morgan Gasser. The first four to turn their key were unsuccessful which left Kyle Hutchings with what everyone assumed to be the winning key. As he walked up to try his key, students in the crowd slowly began to cheer. As soon as the alarm sounded the students erupted into applause and Kyle was showered in confetti, holding onto his new iPad. Kyle will get the opportunity to represent Spanish Fork High in the upcoming drawing for a brand new 2012 Fiat 500. Good luck Kyle! Ken Garff also sponsors scholarships in conjunction with Utah Valley University. Zack Bate was awarded a $2,000 scholarship to Utah Valley University with a matching $1,000 from Utah Community Credit Union. Colby Baum was awarded a $1,000 scholarship for Math, Science, and Engineering to Utah Valley University from the U.S. Synthetic Bill J. Pope Scholarship.
