Welcome to Spanish Fork High School

On a recent weekend, the Spanish Fork High School Shakespeare team went to Cedar City to compete! For the first year, SFHS took part in the Madrigal singing competition under the direction of Mr. Bradshaw. Also, the technical theater team took everyone by storm in the "Tech Olympics", placing first in the Cambridge Division, and placing 1st overall for everyone that competed, winning the Golden Drill which is the first place trophy, and beating out 5 states worth of schools! Members of the tech team were Brock Larson, Lawson Bendall, Chris Cannon, Shae Strong, Evan Krupa, and Keli Adams.

On October 12, 2010, at Maple Mountain High School, the Spanish Fork High School Cross Country team competed with the Payson, Springville, Uintah, and Maple Mountain High Schools for the Region Championships. Although, Maple Mountain High School brought home most of the awards, Spanish Fork Cross Country, taking fourth overall, raced to win. Each runner ran to their best abilities and beat their personal record from Pre-Region.

On Wednesday, October 13, Spanish Fork’s senior class had attended College Days hosted by SFHS counselors and Utah Higher Education Association. They had the opportunity to attend three thirty-five minute seminars from any Utah college of their choice. Each college had a representative that gave information about various college topics. They talked about housing, activities and tuition. However, scholarships were the greatest concern of most students. College Day was very beneficial to students.

On October 12, 2010, Spanish Fork High School choir kicked off the new school year with their first concert. The concert featured various choir groups, including the Singers, Concert Choir, and Mosaic along with the Don’s Chorus. All groups performed exceptionally well, singing folk songs from around the world. The Singers performed a song called Fifteen Finns, a song about fifteen Viking raiders who went raiding, but lost their lives to the fair maiden who fought them with axes and knives.

On Monday, October 5th, Tailyr Peterson, Claire Stodtmeister, and Whitney Nielson, a part of Spanish Fork Drill Team, were chosen by their fellow teammates to go up to Taylorsville High School and try out to be a part of the 4A all-state drill team. Girls from all of the high school teams across Utah came together to learn a short routine and audition for the all-state team. The audition went very well. Both Tailyr and Claire along with girls from across the state of Utah, made the team and will have a chance to perform at the 4A basketball state championship game together.
