Brenna Miller, Student Body Officer. will present "Celebrating South Jordan Middle School."

President Dunford, VP Tracy Miller, Superintendent Godfrey, and members of the board, my name is Brenna Miller and I serve as 9th Grade Student Body Officer President at South Jordan MIddle School. We thank you for being here and letting us share what we feel is wonderful about our great school.  

To the rest of the world, they know us as South Jordan Middle School, but those who go here and love it call it "SOJO."  We believe that SOJO is a phenomenal school with caring administrators and teachers, a myriad of engaging activities and clubs, and students who truly care about each other. 

The time is 7:45, 11:30, or  2:50 and you better believe we see Principal Johnson, Mrs. Bailey and Mr. Ricks on Bus Duty, Lunch Duty, out in the Hall giving smiles and talking to students. They not only help our school run smoothly, but they truly are invested in who we are as people and our success. They make not only their presence known, but their love and concern for us as well. 

Every other minute of the day, you will see teachers who give it their all. The teachers at SOJO truly care how you are doing, not only in the classroom, but your personal life as well. They give multiple chances for success, are creative with their lesson plans, enthusiastic about what they teach, and try to make the curriculum fun, even when it is not the most exciting topic in the world. Teachers go above and beyond as they are more than willing to give ample time before or after school or on Fridays. They make each of us feel welcome, and we love being in their classrooms. 

Whether it is during school or after school, SOJO has a variety of elective classes and programs. Some of our beloved programs include the Chinese Dual Immersion, the Art Foundations and Ceramics classes, English Tutoring, Math Tutoring, Peer Tutoring,  MESA, PROWL, Student Body Officer, and Ambassador Leadership committees. The school also provides fun activities such as intramural sports, assemblies, service projects, and so much more. There is a huge emphasis on being a positive and productive member of the student body. To promote this there are programs such as Student of the Month, Student of the Day, Principal 200 Club, the High-Five club, and even celebrating birthdays. 

During the day you can find a variety of hidden gems here at SOJO as well. Such as at 8:40 when during the Morning Announcements we have our "Mindful Minute". Then during A,B, or C Lunch you can have the best Spicy Chicken Sandwich in all of the District. Also, our bathrooms are always clean, and for middle school students, that is shocking. Then throughout each passing period, music can be heard over the intercom, bringing more positivity to our day. 

Though school lasts for 7:50-2:50, the care and concern SOJO students have for each other goes beyond the designated school time. In a world where bullying is a huge issue, SOJO students seek to be kind, and serve one another. Students are always willing to help out their peers. Students who are new to the school, are taken around during their first couple days, and anyone is always willing to help answer the question, "Where is the Math Hall?" 

Middle school can be a challenging time dealing with 7 classes, friends, style, fashion, and finding yourself. The time spent here at SOJO helps students prepare for the future, but most importantly feel loved and cared about during this period of growth and change. 

President Dunford, Vice President Tracy Miller, Superintendent Godfrey, and other members of the board, thank you again for your time, energy, and effort to help us be truly successful here in the Jordan School District. We appreciate all of you and your time and efforts, especially during this uncertain time. 

Whereas, dedicated service to Jordan School District was faithfully and effectively performed;

 Whereas, they consistently and conscientiously executed their responsibilities with integrity, honesty and loyalty;

Be it Therefore Resolved: That the Jordan School District Board of Education and District Administration declare appreciation for the outstanding service that was performed in the cause of public education and hereby express our sorrow at the death of these valued friends:
