There is no substitute for walking through the front doors, stepping into our classrooms, and seeing firsthand the incredible work our students, teachers, and staff do every single day. Public charter schools offer unique, individualized learning opportunities for Utah families, and having our state leaders visit helps ensure our school communities have a strong voice on Capitol Hill.
Thank you, Representative Shipp, for investing time in our kids, hearing our story, and supporting public education in southern Utah! 🐝✨

First was Award-winning children’s author Janet Sumner Johnson is coming to read to our students! Our classrooms can’t wait to dive into her wonderful stories, hear about her creative writing journey, and discover what it takes to bring beloved picture books to life.
