They enjoyed their trip and loved the warm weather for a week.

This past week at SFHS the Spanish Fork FFA chapter, along with every other chapter of the National Club, celebrated National FFA week.

President Obama signed a similar document that declared it nationally FFA week across the nation.

On Saturday, February 20, 2010, the Spanish Fork Debate teams had the opportunity to compete for Region at Payson High School. The students had prepared to compete for several weeks before the competition. In the different types of debate, two teams from Spanish Fork went undefeated. Many other teams did well and were the top teams of at the competition. The Spanish Fork team came in second over-all and will compete for state in March. It looks like the team has more preparation ahead of them.
