Welcome to Spanish Fork High School

Spanish Fork High School honored the heroes of our country on Veteran’s Day with an inspirational assembly. It started off with a patriotic line-up of our Country’s flag to lead the student body into the auditorium, and then SFHS’s Choir sang the National Anthem. It continued with Spanish Fork’s own Combat Engineer veteran, Lucas Isley. Mr. Isley’s thoughts as he prepared for the assembly were that he wanted to speak about more than just what he did as a soldier.

November 3rd through November 9th Spanish Fork High School’s Debate Team attended the David Damus Tournament at the University Of Southern California. Debating started Friday the 5th, and ended Sunday the 7th. Several Lincoln Douglas Debaters broke- meaning they won enough rounds out of the six that they broke into the octa-finals. Debaters Lisie Dixon, Jake Muhlestein, and Wesley Curtin were these debaters.

Four students from Spanish Fork High School, Marlee Olsen, Brandi Horner, Marcee Clayson, and Tori Grange, got involved for their English service project. The four girls went to East Meadows Elementary School during the afternoon of November 8th and read to the first graders in the library. The librarian, who happens to be Marlee Olsen’s mom, enjoyed having them there as well as the 1st graders and 1st grade teachers. “We also played Simon says with them. They were so cute!” says Marlee, recalling her last Monday activity and completing her first semester project.

During “Red Ribbon Week” Spanish Fork High Students got a view of a few lives affected by drugs. Film producer, Ron Williams, known for his dramatic documentary, Happy Valley, a film showing the affect of drug addictions in the Utah County, spoke about his wife who got started on prescription drugs, and then left her life to chase illegal drugs. He also came with a guest from the documentary that was addicted to drugs and had her friend over-dose. They both urged students to avoid any addictions and to stay away from substances that can take over your life.
