Welcome to Spanish Fork High School

On September 24, the counseling center at Spanish Fork High School had their first Window in the Workplace presentation for the students. These presentations are meant to help students learn more about different careers from the people who work in them. At this presentation, Dave from Northwest Orthotics and Prosthetics came to speak to students about his job.

In his presentation, Dave explained that his job was to build prosthetic limbs for people. He also brought some prosthetics that he made and passed them around to the students. He then told what each one was for.

The intern spotlight of the week is Alex Singerman, who interns at Brockbank Elementary. She helps Mrs. Creer with her 3rd grade class. Singerman helps teach the kids and learns from Mrs. Creer. She also helps with all the 3rd grade classes by cutting and sorting papers for the different teachers, and she gets to play with the kids at recess.

“I’m totally the jump rope champion!” she said. Singerman learns a lot from Mrs. Creer and she enjoys her time as an intern.

SFHS had a spirit bowl last Friday. They had a competition between the seniors, juniors, sophomores, and the faculty to see who had the most spirit. They had competitions such as musical chairs, a relay race, crab soccer, and a tug o war. The seniors dominated on the tug o war, while the juniors won the relay race, musical chairs and crab soccer. The pep assembly had everyone pumped up for their rivalry game against Payson which happened on Friday also. The juniors won the competition, with the faculty in second, the seniors in third and, the sophomores in last place. 

Spanish Fork High School’s Shakespeare Team performed their Night of Scenes and Monologues where they showcased what they are taking to competition this week. Jen Grzybowski, Katie Cable, and Tanner Holt will be competing with monologues. The first scene they will compete with will be performed by Bethany Hutchison, Matt Cole, and Kyle Crotts. The second scene will be performed by Jared Tuckett and Hannah Carson. The team will be leaving on Thursday, October 8th and will compete this weekend in Cedar City.

Seniors at Spanish Fork High School gathered early Thursday morning (the 24th of September) to watch the sunrise and celebrate the start of the new school year.

Tyson Sperry commented, "This is fun, but my hands are really cold!" To help warm students up, there were hot chocolate and muffins provided as a delicious breakfast.

There was also a rock band competition held for anyone who wanted to participate.  Thanks to Senior Council and the Student Body Officerss for planning this fun kickoff to a great senior year!
