In an effort to foster a sense of community and support for military families, Rocky Mountain Junior High hosted its first annual Military Family Social on September 6th. The event aimed to connect military families, veterans, and retired service members with one another and provide them with essential resources available in the local area.

Larissa Archuleta, the new military support specialist for Weber School District, explained the purpose of the event, stating, "We want to create a network where military families feel supported and connected. By bringing them together, we can introduce them to various community resources and help them build lasting relationships."

One of the primary goals of the social was to identify military-connected students and their families so that the school district could provide tailored support. Christa Davis, the military family point of contact for Rocky Mountain Junior High School, emphasized the importance of welcoming and including these families. "By simply being friendly we can make military families feel at home in our community," she said.

Rocky Mountain Junior High, a Purple Star School, is committed to honoring and celebrating the members of the armed forces and their families. The school offers a range of resources and support services to help military-connected students and their families adjust to the community.

The event featured a variety of activities aimed at connecting military families and the community. Attendees had the opportunity to meet other families, learn about local resources, and enjoy a festive atmosphere. The school district also encouraged students to befriend their military-connected peers and make them feel welcome.

As this inaugural event proved to be a success, Weber School District plans to continue hosting Military Family Socials in the future. By providing a platform for military families to connect and receive support, the district hopes to continue to be an inclusive and welcoming environment for all students.

Country View Elementary School celebrated the grand opening of its new playground on September 11, 2024. The playground was made possible thanks to a generous R.A.M.P grant, community donations, and the tireless efforts of school staff, parents, and community members.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony was attended by school officials, local dignitaries, parents, and excited students. Principal Mary Heslop expressed her gratitude to everyone who contributed to the project, highlighting the dedication and hard work of the school community.

The new playground is a testament to the power of collaboration and community spirit. Principal Heslop added "This will benefit their education by allowing them to release energy, build social connections, and come back to the classroom ready to learn."

The playground features a variety of play equipment, including slides, swings, climbing structures, and imaginative play areas. The new space is designed to promote physical activity, social interaction, and creativity among students.

"The community all came together and made it happen," said Amber Jones, the Country View PTA President. She was impressed with how quickly it happened once everyone got involved.

The playground project was funded in part by a grant from Weber County R.A.M.P  and through fundraising efforts by the school's PTA and community members. The school also received generous donations from local businesses and countless individuals.

The new playground is expected to benefit students for years to come and serve as a valuable community resource.

Monday, September 9th, marked a significant milestone as Haven Bay Elementary School officially opened its doors, welcoming excited students and staff. Principal Justin Skeen shared his thoughts on this special occasion during an interview, highlighting the joy of seeing the students arrive.

"You know, once the students showed up this morning, it put everything together for us. That was the most important thing—getting kids on our campus, all in the same location. It made everything else, like the ongoing construction, not as important. The students are happy and excited to be here," Skeen said. "That makes all the difference in the world for us."

Reflecting on the students’ reactions, Skeen described their awe at the new school facilities. "Well, for one, they think their school's amazing. When they see their classrooms, many said things like, 'Wow, my room is so big!' or 'I can't believe this is my school.' That excitement carried into today, and there's such a positive energy—it’s like none other."

Principal Skeen also emphasized Haven Bay's focus on building community and teamwork. "Our expectations are to build teams and create a strong school culture, which is really important here at Haven Bay—from the office to every aspect of the building, to our students. We want to build a sense of community."

Haven Bay Elementary has already set the tone for a bright future, where students, staff, and families can thrive in a supportive and collaborative environment. As the new school year begins, Haven Bay is poised to become a cornerstone of the community, shaping young minds and fostering a sense of unity.

West Field High School officially opened its doors for the first time on September 3rd. Excitement was high as students, teachers, and staff gathered for the first day of classes. "Everything is so innovative and fresh, and the energy is just palpable," shared the Student Government Advisor. Students were equally thrilled, with many eagerly discussing upcoming events. "We have a lot of activities for homecoming in the first week of school" one student remarked. As students flooded the halls, one simply said, "I’m excited for football games and meeting new people." Principal Martini echoed the enthusiasm, calling it the start of a tradition of "greatness and excellence." As one teacher put it, "It's great to finally have students in the building after weeks of preparation." The Longhorns are ready to kick off a memorable year.
