Each term, teachers at Springville Jr. High nominate students who truly embody what it means to be a Knight: an ally to classmates, a strong communicator, a responsible citizen, and a successful learner. Meet our 5 Super Knights, along with highlights from their teachers about what makes each of them outstanding!
