The November Library Challenge is to read a book that is a retelling! Read along with us and talk about what you are reading with your kids. When parents read, their kids read too! Here are some recommendations to get you started:
For Kids: I love Ninja Red Riding Hood! The illustrations are fun, the rhyming on point, and the story so cute. When you fall in love with this picture book, you can continue the adventures in The Three Ninja Pigs and Hensel and Gretel: Ninja Chicks.
For Teens: Wolf's Belly is a new graphic novel retelling of Little Red Riding Hood and it is so much fun! There are references to so many other fairy tale characters and it's great to see Little Red take things into her own hands. Heartless is another favorite--the rest of the story of the Queen of Hearts. You'll find yourself rooting for her and hping that the story will end a different way than you know it's going to.
For Adults: There are so many great options out there! Grab Circe if you want a mythological retellling, Pride and Premeditation if you are an Austen fan, or the Snow Child if you want a Russian fairytale retelling perfect for winter.
Happy reading!

In our 8th and 9th grade history classes, students were each given a square of paper and asked to interview 3 people about what it means to be an American. The red, white, and blue squares were then put together to create this giant flag that is hanging in the commons as a tribute to the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. It is also a fitting tribute to those who served and sacrificed for our country in the armed services that we recognize today, on Veteran's Day.
Mark your calendars! Parent-Teacher Conferences are coming up on November 19th, from 3:30-7 at Springville Jr. High. This is a great opportunity to meet with teachers and check in on how things are going for term 2. We look forward to seeing you then!
Congratulations to our Reflection Winners! The following students submitted artwork for the theme "What My Culture Means to Me" in a variety of categories and were awarded the Award of Excellence or the Award of Merit for their entries! Congratulations to these talented students and thank you to everyone who participated!

As you may know—and if not, consider this your official notice—the University of Utah plays BYU! This is a pretty big deal around here, so we’re leaning into the rivalry with a special Tailgate Lunch on Friday, November 6!
All entrée choices that day will come with a choice of Nacho Cheese Doritos or Cool Ranch Doritos. Here’s where the fun comes in: students can use their chip choice to predict the winner!
🔵 Blue Cool Ranch = BYU wins!
🔴 Red Nacho Cheese = University of Utah wins!
Of course, students can also just choose their favorite flavor. We won’t question their loyalty based on their taste in chips! 😉
After lunch service, we’ll run our usage reports and let you know which team your school picked to win Saturday’s game. Once the game is over, we’ll see which schools got it right!

We are honoring veterans at Springville Jr. High School during the month of November. We would love to have art displayed throughout the commons area that represents this year's theme of "Because They Served."
Art Options:
You could choose between many different art options such as: drawing, painting, sculpting, constructing, photography, etc. The top 3 art projects will get prizes and be featured on our social media pages.
Guidelines:
Think of the theme, "Because They Served" and create a work of art that represents the theme.
Make sure it is respectful (no graphic violent scenes).
Make sure it honors our veterans.
The art piece needs to be at least 8x10. We want people to be able to see it and the detail you have worked so hard to create. It can be larger, but 8x10 is the minimum size.
Submissions are due: Sunday, November 8th
Submit your entry to Mrs. Lundell in the office.
If you have any questions, email Mrs. Lundell at brittany.lundell@nebo.edu

Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a joyful Mexican holiday celebrated from November 1–2 that honors loved ones who have passed away. Rather than a time of mourning, it's a vibrant celebration of memory and life! Families create colorful altars (ofrendas) adorned with vibrant marigolds (cempasúchil), sugar skulls, photos, and favorite foods to welcome back the spirits of family and friends for a brief reunion.
At SJHS, our Spanish classes created their own ofrendas to honor their families members and celebrate this tradition.
