Mrs. Josie Hales teaches the Computers in Business class, which is a place where students learn how to manage a business using computers. As part of the class, students are creating their own websites.

The students in Computers in Business have been making and managing their own fictional amusement parks. They get to decide what logo, slogan, name, and everything else they want to include about their park. As part of the assignment, students get to make a website advertizing their amusement park. The students began making the websites November 15th. 

Students in photography were recently assigned a new project called Surrealism. This type art was created in Europe 1930’s and was first done in paint. According to Mr. Mitch Cudney, art and photography teacher at Springville Junior High, these photos can turn out to be crazy, zany, and fun when they are finished.

At Springville Junior High, there is something called Quest Time. Quest Time is right after third period where students can go to a room of their choice. Each room has an activity such as the movie, karaoke, board games, writing lab, etc. You are only allowed to go to these fun activities if you have an A, B, or C.       

Guess who’s new this year at Springville Junior High? Mrs. Kelli Lauret had her first walk through the halls of SJHS at the start of the year.  This is Mrs. Lauret’s first year teaching. As a ninth-grade student she took peer tutoring and thought it was a blast. From that point on Mrs. Lauret knew becoming a teacher was exactly what she wanted to be when she grew up.
