I am a builder when I think positive thoughts about myself and others
“If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until it gets so ugly you can hardly bear to look at it.
A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.” ~Roald Dahl

Drop Off Reminder
When you are dropping students off, pull all the way forward, allowing the maximum number of cars to use the curb at once. We encourage students to have learning plans signed, coats on, masks on, and goodbye’s said BEFORE you arrive at the curb. Thank you!
PLEASE do NOT make U-turns on Lone Peak Parkway, it is very dangerous!! If you are coming from the south, PLEASE go to River Chapel Road and turn around there. For those coming from the north, please allow parents to join the line at River Chapel Road. Thank you for being as safe as possible as you come to school each morning.
