Successful Learners are: Dedicated to Excellence - United in Service - Educated for Success

Last Friday, the Red Devils traveled to Vernal to take on the Uintah Utes on their home turf.  After the first half, Springville led Uintah 14-0.  Uintah attempted early to jump for the lead, but came up short; ending the third quarter 27-7 in favor of Springville with Steve Bate throwing three touchdown passes and Dallion Ollerton catching two of them.   When the Red Devils are on fire, it’s impossible to slow them down.  

In spite of the Ute’s celebrating their homecoming, Springville gave no mercy, dishing out a final score of 48-7.  Students and community members are encouraged to attend Springville’s next home game against Maple Mountain this Friday, October 1.

Forty-five students at Springville High have earned AP Scholar Awards in recognition of their exceptional achievement on AP Exams.

The College Board’s Advanced Placement Program (AP) provides motivated and academically prepared students with the opportunity to take rigorous college-level courses while still in high school, and to earn college credit, advanced placement, or both for successful performance on the AP Exams.  About 18 percent of the nearly 1.7 million students worldwide who took AP Exams performed at a sufficiently high level to also earn an AP Scholar Award.

The College Board recognizes several levels of achievement based on students’ performance on AP Exams.

At Springville High, 28 students qualified for the National AP Scholar Award by earning an average grade of 4 or higher on a five-point scale on all AP Exams taken, and grades of 4 or higher on eight or more of these exams.  These students are:  Caitlyn Erickson, Natalia Garcia, Carter Jennings, Elizabeth Jenson, Kjersten Johnson, Madison Kerbo, Cindy Lamont, Tyler Maingot, Erica Mehl, Corinne Mortensen, Tanner Nackos, Samuel Nelson, Tyler Park, Rachelle Pope, Samuel Schreiner, Jenny Scot, Anne Schoemaker, and  Taylor Sutterfield.

Six students qualified for the AP Scholar with Distinction Award by earning an average grade of at least 3.5 on all AP Exams taken, and grades of 3 or higher on five or more of these exams.  These students are:  Ryan Allred, Rachel Anderson, Stacy Bartholomew, John Call, Calvin Clark, and Mark Israelsen.

Four students qualified for the AP Scholar with Honor Award by earning an average grade of at least 3.25 on all AP Exams taken, and grades of 3 or higher on four or more of these exams.  These students are:  Amber Angell, Brittany Bown, Robert Gardner, and Jefferson McClain.  

Congratulations to all AP Scholars!

burnning of the s

Homecoming week brought with it many exciting activities sponsored by the high school.  Among these were the traditional burning of the “S” and the Homecoming Parade.   Although these events occur each year, they nevertheless are filled with creativity and ingenuity.

The Homecoming parade this year was a night parade, causing it to be called the “Light” Parade.  Students this year had the opportunity to create glowing floats using many luminescent devices, from glows sticks and black lights to glowing light suits.  With many clubs, teams, and other school sponsored groups, including the student council, participating the light parade, it was a glowing success.

After the parade came to a stop, students piled out to the baseball diamond for the burning of the “S.”  Painted green and decorated with a lion skewered on a red pitch fork, it stirred excitement for the following game day.  As the “S” burst into a raging inferno with students chanting, “Burn that cat,” it foreshadowed the victory over Payson perfectly.
