The most donations were placed in the U of U bin so go Utes!

To start the fall season off and to promote thinking about colleges we will  be having a little competition between BYU fans and U of U fans.  We also want to  launch the year off  by  helping those in need. 

  • Plan to wear the colors of your favorite school during the week and encourage your students to do the same. 
  • From Tuesday, September 13th-Thursday, September 15th we will havea food drive to support the Utah Food Bank. 
  • Those who support the “BYU” will bring a can of food to place in the  BYU bin and  those who support the “U of U” will bring a can of food for the  “U of U” bin. Donations can be made in the front office. 
  • On Friday the announcement will be made of which school got the most support in preparation for the big game on Saturday.

 If the U of U wins we will all wear Red including Principal Skidmore !!! If BYU wins Blue is the color of the day.
