Welcome to Spanish Fork High School

Spanish Fork High School has an internship program like no other. It is great seeing students taking advantage of this wonderful opportunity. It assists students that are not quite sure what they want to pursue in a future career or helps them gain experience in a career field they are interested in. Candace Wride has just completed an internship at Peak’s Therapy here in Spanish Fork. She performed a variety of tasks while interning here. She would observe patient procedures while assisting the physical therapist by getting heat and ice packs.

On Tuesday, March 16th, a benefit concert was held for the Red Cross to support the various countries that were devastated by natural disasters.

They played several pieces including “Night in Tunisia” and “How High the Moon.” The concert band then performed and played “Washington Post March” and an old classic called “The First Suite in Eb” by Holst.

Spanish Fork's parliamentary procedure team took 4th place.

Recently, Spanish fork was granted the presence of Jared McNaughton. Mr. McNaughton is a specialist in the field of animal embryo transplant. The students were entertained as McNaughton explained the things involved in his job. He mentioned how he mainly works with animals of the bovine category. He has preserved some embryos from some top cows. He told of the equipment he uses, a large glove. He informed the students of ways to get into the job. Overall, Spanish Fork High School students were very glad he came.
