Dear Midvalley Families –
We had another great week at Midvalley! Our 5th grade got to attend middle school orientation at Midvale and Union Middle Schools. Hillcrest High School’s Latinos In Action worked with our Jr. Huskies. Ms. Jamie did an excellent job planning a super fun PAWS day where Jr. Huskies practiced appropriate voice levels in different locations in our school. We had the Magic of You assembly come teach our students about kindness and the power to make change. We celebrated the one hundredth day of school–excellent job Jr. Huskies!
This is the place to be!
Go Jr. Huskies!
Jr. Husky Success…Nothing Less!

Teacher of Year – It has been said the influence of a great teacher can never be erased. Even as old fashioned chalkboards are eschewed in favor of hand-held digital devices, the mark of a stellar teacher, like the memory of a A-plus grade written in red grease pencil atop a turned-in assignment, lasts for decades, if not a lifetime. The commitment and contributions of Canyons teachers, regardless of the classes or grades they teach, are celebrated every spring when CSD schools honors educators at all District schools and programs. This year is no different — and parents, students, patrons, and employees are invited to submit nominations for CSD’s 2023 Teacher of the Year, an honor that will be announced in April. Nominations will be accepted via the online nomination tool until 5 p.m. on Feb. 6. Here’s how you can help CSD select the 2023 Teacher of the Year:
An evaluation process helps narrow the list to a group of semifinalists. From that field, three finalists are selected — one from the elementary level, another from the middle schools, and one from the high school ranks of educators. One of the three finalists is then selected to represent Canyons in the state Teacher of the Year contest. The winning educator also will receive the 2023 Apex Award for Teacher of the Year, the highest honor given to teachers by the Canyons Board of Education and Administration. Every school-based Teacher of the Year will receive gifts, prizes, and a $250 gift card and a cooler backpack from the Canyons Education Foundation. The Canyons District Teacher of the Year program is generously supported by local businesses and the Canyons Education Foundation, which also provides $500 cash prizes for each finalist. The overall Teacher of the Year receives an additional $500 from the Foundation and its partners. Stay in the know about Midvalley! |
