Exploring Technology is a comprehensive, action-based, course that introduces students to technology and its impact on society. Students will develop problem-solving skills, improve awareness for College and Career Ready (CCR), and build understanding of the relationship between science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Emphasis is placed on broad exploration in cooperative activities rather than individual skill development and projects. Students will explore engineering and at least three of the following seven technology areas: 1) agriculture & biotechnology, 2) construction, 3) energy and power, 4) information and communication, 5) manufacturing, 6) medical, and 7) transportation.
Mr. Hawkes Gateway class at South Ogden Jr High are learning how to program robots.
Tori Adams helped with a Thanksgiving dinner for those in need in conjunction with the Salvation Army, UofU kitchens and Chartwells (the 11th largest food company in the world) and was interviewed on ABC 4 news that aired on Thanksgiving. Here is the video clip of her interview! She represented Roy High well very well, receiving a great praise from the chefs there. Because of her hard work she was offered a position working with the head chef of Chartwells – Chef Peter Hodgsen. Not many get offered a position with Chef Peter. She is very humble about the experience and is shy about the publicity but I wanted to let you all know how amazing she is! She was also featured on the National ProStart Program Facebook page yesterday as recognition for how ProStart Students “Give Back”.

Advisors; There has been a change in the CTSO Advisor Reports and Point Index for this new 2016-2017 school year. Please review these documents carefully and plan ahead. Arranging guest speakers and field trips takes a little lead time on planning, so please be mindful of the dates. Again, your CTSO will receive $50 per Report if each activity is summarized appropriately (*Note#6), and clearly follows the guidelines within the designated time frame listed.
Here are some very important notes regarding your payments and index points:
Note #1: All officers and members must be eligible to participate.
Note #2: Each CTSO may have a maximum of one advisor, one assistant, and one consultant.
Note #3: Assistant advisor salary is based on 60% of advisor salary base.
Note #4: Consultant salary is based on 20% of advisor salary base.
Note #5: 2016-2017 = $83.50 per point
Note #6: Each activity must be accompanied by a written summary that includes the following:
