Congratulations to the girls and boys track team who finished 3rd overall in last week's district track championship. Jordan Blanchard, Head Track Coach, is very proud of the hard work and dedication that SaJHS track members showed this year. "We are very happy because we had so many personal records this season. Our athletes were improving week after week," Blanchard explains. "Also, the size of our team increased by almost 40 athletes from last year to 165 participants."
Here are SaJHS student's results from the district track meet:

SaJHS creative writing students visited Salem Elementary today to read their own published children's books to first and second graders. The books were illustrated by some of Ms. Magnusson's art students. The elementary students were excited to have SaJHS students visit and loved the books!
Anyone visiting the school on Tuesday of last week would have surprised to see the teacher's behavior. In a school-wide assesmbly, teachers were acting crazy as they made good on their promises to SaJHS students. The promises were made in order to compete with SHHS to see who could earn the most money for Quinton Muir, an eighth grader at SaJHS battling cancer. It was decided that the winner would get a school-wide BBQ for lunch. SaJHS students rallied around one of their own and collected over $5500 beating Salem Hills High School.
Tate Palmer and Oakley Palfreyman were awarded the Utah County Great Kids Award from the Utah Valley Chamber of Commerce on April 30th. Oakley and Tate were given a cash award of $100.00. Congratulations Tate and Oakley!
Did you know many students from Salem Hills High School and Salem Junior High raise and exhibit animals at Junior Livestock Shows around the state every year? We have students showing steers, lambs and hogs locally this week. The local auction is on May 3 at the Spanish Fork Fairgrounds. Now is a great time to fill your freezer and support the youth of our community. The cost is listed below.
