Davis School District -

Adams Elementary visited the Great Salt Lake wetlands with a guide from The Nature Conservancy.

“Today is all about observation,” the guide told students. “Look at it, listen to it, smell it.”

Each month, a select group of students are invited to an event called Soup with the Supt. These students, nominated by their principals, are recognized for their outstanding contributions and positive impact on their respective schools.

Congratulations to the October honorees! Your dedication and commitment to excellence make you true representatives of our district. We are incredibly proud of your accomplishments.

Families, students and staff gathered on the playground to kick off the new school year with bounce houses, games, a silent auction, face painting, fake tattoos and plenty of hot dogs and popcorn.

The event was a true team effort — with teachers, the school counselor and math coach joining in, and student leaders from the Community Council running the face painting booth.

This was Wasatch Elementary’s first-ever Back-to-School Carnival, and it was a huge success in strengthening connections between our school and community.🍁

Did you know that Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) affects 1 in 14 people? It is one of the most prevalent disabilities in the Davis School District, yet often goes unnoticed because it is not linked to autism, hearing loss or intellectual disability.

DLD can make understanding and using language a daily challenge:

- Young children may miss language milestones.
- School-aged children can struggle with vocabulary and complex sentences.
- Adults may find it hard to follow directions or express their ideas.

DLD is a lifelong disorder, but schools throughout the Davis District are committed to helping students thrive. Through the work of speech-language pathologists and special educators, students receive interventions and support, including:

- Universal Language Screenings
- CKLA/ELA Curriculums
- Speech/Language Services
- Resource Special Education Services
- Preschool Classrooms
- Academic Social Communication Classrooms
- Essential Elements Classrooms
- …and so much more!

Show your support on October 15—DLD Awareness Day—by wearing purple or gold.

Congratulations to Viewmont High’s Corver Barnes for taking third place in the 5A Boys State Golf Tournament. Way to represent the Vikings with skill and sportsmanship.

Science came to life at Wasatch Elementary.

Students explored chemistry through a hands-on “Reaction Time” lab, learning about solids, liquids and gases—and how to tell the difference between physical and chemical changes.

Students made hypotheses, tested reactions and saw science in action!

Role reversal day at Bluff Ridge Elementary School.

Students and teachers had a blast during “Dress Like a Teacher Day”—with students dressing up like their favorite teachers and teachers showing up in their best “student” gear. From spirit wear to creative costumes, the day was filled with laughter and school pride!

UDOT taught Clinton Elementary students key safety tips as construction begins on 1800 North. Students even joined a safety relay with @ClintonCityPD! Watch here: https://youtube.com/shorts/YJe5zgIKrfI?feature=share

It’s great to be in school!

Did you know missing just two days a month can add up to a month of lost learning by the end of the year? Regular attendance matters—academically, socially and emotionally.

That’s why Davis School District is proud to support Every Day Counts, Utah’s statewide attendance awareness campaign. Whether you’re a parent, student or teacher, we all play a role in building strong attendance habits.

Let’s lead by example! Show up, stay engaged and help students succeed. Together, we can make sure Every Day Counts.

Mrs. Westwood’s 5th graders at Wasatch Elementary had a wonderful time celebrating Constitution Month.

Students learned about the U.S. Constitution—why it matters and how it has shaped our nation’s history. To show their learning, they created Constitution lapbooks filled with facts, key vocabulary and original illustrations.

Their excitement was contagious, and they couldn’t wait to share their work. Go Eagles!
