Submitted by andria.lewis on

Last week the Jazz Bear from the Utah Jazz came to visit the students at Canyon! Even though he can't talk, he gave a great presentation about having a healthy lifestyle.

His presentation staying away from drugs and alcohol, eating healthy foods, and getting plenty of exercise.

The kids loved it, and were very excited the entire assembly. Thanks Utah Jazz for sending the Jazz Bear to our school! And thanks to Ms. Nilson (1st grade teacher) for arranging for him to come!

The 3rd graders did a great job on their Christmas program! They sang fun songs, recicted jokes and poems, and did some reader's theatre. It was very apparent that a lot of practice went into their performance.

Great job students!

Submitted by andria.lewis on

A few weeks ago, 4th grade got the opportunity to go to a Women's basketball game at BYU and cheer on the Cougars for Kids' Day.

They got to meet Cosmo and the team, made it onto the Jumbo Tron (the highlight of the game for many) and had a great time!
