Welcome to Spanish Fork High School

The Spanish Fork Swim team beat Timp View in their meet against American Fork, Timp View, and Lone Peak on Wednesday October 27. Their boy’s team blew the competition out of the water when they placed 2nd in their relay race. They had many place very high individually and earn their team many points. The season is starting out to be a good one. They have the talent and ability to do well in meets. They could have a chance at taking region, but they would need more people to join. They are a strong team and will continue to do well.

This past week Spanish Fork high school put on a blood drive. Kay Thomas Perkins said, “We are still the bloodiest school around.” Although it wasn’t as successful as SFHS has had in the past, students still did a great job. Spanish Fork High donated around 25 units of blood. Jake Meservey a student who donated blood said, “I felt good to donate and help other people out.” There will also be another blood drive at the end of the year. SFHS encourages everyone to watch for when that is and to come out and donate so SFHS can give even more this next time.

Despite their win on Thursday night against their in-town rivals Maple Mountain, the night was still an emotional one. Emotions were high all night, and the Dons won their game by nearly 20 points, but as soon as the final whistle blew and the Dons had rung the victory bell, senior emotions started to show. It was the long dreaded senior night. The football seniors were honored with fireworks, a loving crowd, and much more. Seniors include, Travis Still, Cody Duncan, Pj Inoke, Sean Leifson, Isaac Asiata, Chase James, Jordan Stephens, Jerron Orton, and Tyson Galovich.

Spanish Fork High School’s FCCLA (Family, Career and Community Leaders of America) club try their hardest to do as much service as they can. They try to do a service project once a month. For the month of October, the presidency of the club decided to paint faces on pumpkins and give them to the Senior Center right across the street from the high school. The members of the club were invited to participate, and the club felt like this was a great way to give some holiday spirit to the elderly people who are in our area. It turned out to be a great service project for the FCCLA club.
