Welcome to Spanish Fork High School

On Tuesday, December 7, an award was given during halftime at the Girls basketball game vs. Timpanogos. This award was the Daily Herald’s Battle for Utah Valley 2010 fall challenge. This was decided by an online voting poll for all of Utah County. Anyone could go on-line and vote for which school they thought had the best spirit for the fall sports; and of course, the Spanish Fork Don’s came out on top! SFHS was awarded a trophy that they can keep until the winter winners are announced.

On Thursday December 2, 2010, the Spanish Fork High School Cross Country team left for California, where they ran the All-West Region Footlocker Race at Mt. San Antonio College. The SFHS Cross Country team shared a charter bus with two other high schools, Salem Hills and Springville. The bus ride was long and arduous; however, it was merely an obstacle in the way of the ultimate goal of racing in the All-West Region Footlocker race. It is a privilege and an honor to compete in the race. Runners from across the country come to participate.

Spanish Fork High School wrestlers competed in the Layton invitational wrestling tournament this past weekend. This was the first match for these wrestlers this year. Coach Sheperd said that he was pleased with the team and was impressed. He also said that they have room for improvement, but the team has potential. Two wrestlers that competed very well at the tournament were Cody Duncan and Branson Ashworth. Cody Dunc an, a senior at Spanish Fork High School, and a returning state placer, brought home first place. Duncan said he was very happy to start the season off with a tournament win.

Spanish Fork High School's Production of the Phantom of the Opera was a giant success. The hours spent in labor over this grand project paid off in the end. With a sold out audience on closing night, this play was a smashing hit. Out of four performances three were full houses and the fourth nearly so. The play was presented by only thirteen high-schools in the nation; and even with their work cut out for them, the Spanish Fork Drama Department came through with a standing ovation and a wondrous performance.
