A group of third-grade students from Canyon Elementary are participating in a Rad KIDS safety program. Rad KIDS is a personal empowerment safety education program for children. It is taught by certified instructors. The Rad KIDS goal is to empower children with an understanding of what their options are and to train them with the skills they need to be safe.

Fourth-grade students at Canyon Elementary had the opportunity to see and learn more about reptiles in an assembly from the Bean Museum of BYU.  After discussing many different things about reptiles, students got to see a real lizard, snake, and turtle.

Mountain Man, Scott Sorenson visited the fourth-grade students of Canyon Elementary Friday, Jan. 27, 2012.  This was a great experience for our students.  They loved hearing about famous mountain men, learning more about what a mountain man does, asking questions, and actually getting to touch real animal pelts.

   Fifth-grade students from Canyon Elementary displayed their science projects at their annual Science Fair held at the school Jan. 26, 2012.  Students formed a hypothesis for their science projects and then set up their own experimental trials to prove or disprove their hypothesis.  They kept a journal of their work and finally put together a display showing the results.  Some students worked with a team and others did individual projects.  The winners will now go on to the district science fair.
