First-grade Chinese immersion students at Stewart Elementary School recently brought stories to life through a traditional Chinese shadow play performance.

Students designed puppets, practiced storytelling in Chinese and performed classic tales such as “The Three Little Pigs,” “Little Red Riding Hood” and “The Tortoise and the Hare” while exploring the science concepts of light and shadow.

Chinese shadow play, also known as shadow puppetry, is a traditional art form that dates back more than 2,000 years and continues to be an important part of Chinese culture today. Through hands-on learning experiences like this, students build language skills, cultural understanding, creativity and confidence in meaningful ways.

Thank you to first-grade Chinese immersion teacher Yenchu Wang for helping students experience the joy of learning through culture, performance and imagination.

The Davis School District Class of 2026 Latinos in Action (LIA) graduates represent a legacy of leadership, service and growth. Many of these students were once on the receiving end of LIA tutoring as young elementary learners and are now graduating as mentors, role models and leaders in their schools and community.

Davis School District was among the first in the nation to implement the LIA program, and the Class of 2026 continues that tradition of excellence. These graduates leave high school prepared to lead, serve and make a meaningful impact.

During this year’s graduation celebration, former Davis School District Board Presidents John Robison and Liz Mumford awarded two scholarships to students pursuing careers in education, recognizing the next generation of educators and leaders committed to serving our communities.

Founded by Jose Enriquez in 2001, Latinos in Action works to close opportunity gaps for Latino students while building leadership skills and strengthening community connections. Through tutoring, leadership development and service, LIA continues to shape confident, capable students ready for what comes next.

Voices were raised. Stories were shared. ”Voices of a Nation: Student Perspectives on 250 Years of America” was nothing short of inspiring.

From powerful reflections on unity and freedom to deeply personal stories of identity, courage and hope, our students did more than speak about America’s past. They challenged us to think about its future.

The turnout was incredible, and the energy in the room made one thing clear: this mattered. Students stepped forward on their own time, not for a grade, but because they had something to say. And they delivered.

As one student shared, “We’re not just inheriting America. We’re shaping it.”

We are grateful to every student, educator, mentor and community member who made this event possible. This is what excellence in education looks like. Student voice. Real-world connection. Meaningful opportunity.

All event videos will be released together in June for community viewing. We will share more details in a future post.

t’s that time of year once again for the Annual Smoke & Raku Fest at Syracuse High School.

Now in its 18th year, the festival is a culmination of the student work under the direction of longtime ceramics teacher Todd Young.

The pots, which have been completed and bisque fired, are only awaiting a final glaze before being put inside the kilns and coming out with explosive colors — all based on the artistic desires of the students who created them.

The word Raku stems from a Japanese pottery technique and style, dating back to the 16th century. It is characterized by low-temperature firing, hand-modeling, and rapid cooling.

Once removed from the red-hot kiln, the pottery is placed in containers with combustibles (like sawdust, paper, leaves) which ignite to create unique reduction-driven smoky effects, crackle glazes, and patterns.

Traditionally used for Japanese tea ceremony bowls, Raku is known for its organic, hand-molded feel and delicate, porous nature.

The festivities begin at 2:30 p.m. behind the southeast portion of Syracuse High. It will end at 8 p.m. or until Young runs out of pots. It’s open to the students and faculty at the school, as well as the community.

It’s anticipated that 25 to 30 pots from Syracuse ceramic students will be part of the Raku, and students from other area schools have also been invited.

For more information, contact Young at 801-390-0125.

As the school year comes to a close, every day becomes even more important. The final weeks are filled with opportunities to reinforce learning, celebrate progress and build confidence that carries into the next year.

Consistent attendance helps students stay connected, complete important work and fully experience these final moments with their classmates and teachers. It’s also a time to recognize how far they’ve come—every lesson learned, every challenge overcome and every small win along the way.

Let’s finish the year strong together. By showing up each day, students can end the school year feeling proud, prepared and ready for what comes next.
