A phone call from a child who is crying can stir up all kinds of emotions for a parent. Scammers are playing on that vulnerability and calls targeting parents are on the rise. Reports of parents receiving such calls have been reported at some of our elementary schools. If you receive a call like this during the school day, please do the following: * Call dispatch at 435-586-2955 and report the phone call. * Call your child’s school to reassure yourself that your child is OK. * Do not give the caller personal identifying information by speaking your child’s name. * Stay calm. * Keep your social media settings on private so scammers do not have access to information about your children.

Iron County students participated in the Cedar Breaks Youth Art Contest. Out of 180 entries, three art pieces created by Iron County School District students were chosen among the best, including Grand Prize winner Arlee Mortensen from Enoch Elementary. Korbin Larsen, Iron Springs Elementary, and Remington Lake, Enoch Elementary, were winners at their grade level. The pieces may be viewed by the public at Southern Utah Museum of Art. An awards ceremony will be held Sept. 21 with an open reception from 7-8 p.m. Teachers were trained in the printmaking process by Alisa Peterson from SUU ArtsFusion and then learned about wildlife, geological features, weather patterns, and flora specific to Cedar Breaks National Park. The teachers then developed arts integrated lessons and taught their students about monoprints.

Among many recognitions of 9-11 around the district, we'd like to highlight a few in our schools. At Fiddlers Elementary, students participated in a flag ceremony, heard details about the tragedy of that day from Elementary Director Steven Burton and sang "God Bless the USA." Canyon View High School Madrigals also participated with two musical numbers. At Cedar High, nearly every student participated in a historical lesson during their XLT period. The lessons included a review of 9-11 events, viewing video interviews of 9-11 survivors and each student took home a U.S. Constitution booklet. At Cedar Middle School, students watched the livestream of the remembrance or talked about the events of that day during their advisory period. Additionally, Band Director Kelly Ball participated with other band directors in a nationwide virtual performance of Amazing Grace. #NeverForget

On November 21, voters will decide on a new proposed construction bond for Iron County School District, which promises to be tax neutral — no increase from FY2024 levels. The bond proposal: • Provides funding to build a new elementary school and an alternative programs building; • Adds nine classrooms and separate spaces for wrestling, weight lifting and dance at Canyon View High School; • Places ADA playgrounds at all elementary schools and preschools; • And increases access to high school football stadiums for community groups and other school programs with the installation of artificial turf.

The first day of school for elementary students is in the books for 2023-24. Students were welcomed back with balloon arches, bubbles, cheers, dancing and, of course, lots of pictures. Hallways and classrooms burst with excitement — and a few nerves — as students settle in for an eventful school year.

Yeehaw! 🌟 This week, ICSD drivers proved that taming a wild stallion is nothing compared to taming the big yellow school bus! Drivers gathered at Wood Ranch Park, to showcase their prowess in seven challenges. 🚍🎯 In the pre-check showdown drivers meticulously examined a parked bus, hunting down 22 sneaky issues. Next, they flaunted their bus-loading and unloading finesse. Then the daring drivers took a big yellow beast up a hill, nailing a tight right turn and changed lanes with the finesse of a seasoned rodeo cowboy. Some drivers displayed true skill as they backed a bus into a spot that seemed more suitable for a compact car. As if that wasn’t enough, they then maneuvered through a narrowing alleyway with the skill of a tightrope walker. To end it all, the colossal vehicle was brought to a halt within a mere 6 inches of a cone! At ICSD, we're beyond proud of our drivers. With our most precious cargo on board, they're not just driving—they're driving defensively, ensuring that our kids reach their schools safe and sound. Here's to our unsung heroes of the road! 🙌👏 #ICSDRodeo #DrivingHeroes #PreciousCargoSafety

It was a hot Fourth of July morning, but the parade did not disappoint. A highlight was two patriotic Iron County School District buses celebrating 100 years of transportation. Participating groups from Cedar High and Canyon View High also entertained spectators.

Teachers in Iron County School District left the front of the classroom this week and took a seat as the student as they learned from national, state and local education experts. Marcia Tate told teachers there are 12 brain-based principles that can be used to avoid burnout and promote optimism and well-being. Chad Ford spoke of ways to transform conflict and build better relationships with students, parents and others. Other speakers taught leadership skills, gave classroom management tips and took teachers on a deep dive into the importance of using data in teaching. Teachers were then able to collaborate with one another in their individual schools as they reviewed what they learned. Many spoke of the rejuvenation that workshops like the Iron Strong Conference give to their profession.

It was an intense Battle of the Books as third, fourth and fifth-grade teams from Enoch and South Elementary met in a quiz game format and answered questions based on 20-25 books the students read throughout the year. Some questions brought immediate correct answers of the book title and author, while others stumped both teams. The winners are Enoch fifth-grade Flying Chickens, Enoch fourth-grade Ravenclaws and South third-grade Green Ninjas. Congratulations students!
