Welcome to Spanish Fork High School

Katie Cable is an eighteen year old student intern at two junior high schools. She aids Mr. Olsen in correcting tests and in helping students that need extra help at Diamond Fork Junior High. At Spanish Fork Junior High, Katie helps Ms. Holley in her “Introduction to Drama” class. She takes role and plays games with the students and teaches them how to act. Out of the two, she likes the drama one the most because she gets to teach and be with the kids more. The teachers like having her there to help with the kids and Katie enjoys it. She says, “I love it!

“We've got spirit, yes we do! We've got spirit, how 'bout you?” Spanish Fork High School showed off their spirit at their last home game on Tuesday, February 16, 2010. It was Senior Night for all the seniors at their last basketball home game. So many students showed up in school colors to show their spirit, and cheered the teams on. The score was close throughout the whole game. Spanish Fork managed to win, with the help of all the spirit from the students.

At the age of 17, Sarah Nelson has already accomplished what others only dream of. She has published a book of poetry called The White Crayon. Sarah brings her dreams to life and crushes reality with them. This music of words is truly a work of art, drawn by a master artist, said Mathew Christiansen about the book. “All you need is love. With passion you can do anything,” said Sarah Nelson explaining how she was able to accomplish such an impressive goal.

Spanish Fork High School has been blessed with a great internship program. Students who have the desire can apply to intern at a business of their choosing. The program is designed to give students an opportunity to experience different careers and to help them decide whether or not that is something they might be interested in. I interviewed Derek Pace, a student at Spanish Fork High School who is currently participating in the program. He says he loves it, even though he started recently.

The Future Farmers of America and Floritculture classes visited the State Legislature. They worked with the senators and representatives and explained to them the importance of agriculture education and FFA in public schools. The Floriculture class was able to create boutonniere's for them.
