Free Groceries!

Tomorrow, Tuesday, is our monthly opportunity for free groceries from the Utah Food Bank. The Mobile Food Pantry will open at 3:05pm for students and families to pick up a bag of food items. Please make sure younger students have assistance from older siblings or adults as the bags can be heavy. We look forward to seeing you there!

Holiday Performances Friday, December 20

We are excited to welcome our families to attend our Holiday Sing-Along this year, which will take place on Friday, December 20.
Kindergarten through 2nd grade will perform between 9:00-9:30am.

  • Families may line up outside of the gym/cafeteria starting at 8:20am and the doors will open for families to be seated at 8:45am, with the performance starting at 9:00am and ending by 9:30am.
  • Students will return to classrooms at the end of the performance. If families would like to check their students out after the performance, note that the office will not be calling students down until 10:00am. Families will be asked to wait in their vehicles or outside until this time. This will allow for a safe and orderly transition so we are able to account for all students.
  • Please note that students who are checked out early will miss their classroom parties.

3rd through 5th grades will perform between 9:45-10:15am.

  • Families who are in attendance at the first performance and have older students may remain in the gym/cafeteria.
  • Families who are only attending the second performance will wait in the hall east of the gym/cafeteria until the first performance is completed and those families have left.
  • Students will return to their classrooms after the performance. If families would like to check their students out following the performance, note that the office will not be calling students down until 10:45am. Families will be asked to wait in their vehicles or outside until this time. This will allow for a safe and orderly transition so we are able to account for all students.
  • Please note that students who are checked out early will miss their classroom parties.


If you are unable to attend the event, we will be taking video and sharing the video link on ParentSquare.
