Picture Retakes
Picture retakes will be this Wednesday, October 8. Please remember that attire must be within the school dress code. Not sure you need a retake? Log in to BellPhoto using the link below to preview your child’s yearbook photo. We recommend that you take a look before Wednesday, just so you aren’t surprised when it’s too late to make a change.

SoJo Counseling
This year at South Jordan Middle School, we are offering a Divorce Group to students who have experienced divorce in their family. The goal of this group is to offer support through other students and counselors, and to help students gain healthy coping strategies.
The group will run 4-6 weeks and will be during PROWL, this will not interfere with class time. If you are interested in your student being part of this group, please fill out the google form.
NJHS Induction Ceremony
If your student is a member of NJHS, our induction ceremony will be October 17th at 9:00 in the KIVA. Please come and support your student in this endeavor. We are so proud of our student leaders and can’t wait to celebrate them.
Kendamas
If you don’t know what a kendama is yet, you probably haven’t been to a middle school lately. This is what they look like:
They’re super fun, and also – lately – super disruptive. We love the game, but we’re seeing more and more students using them at times when they should be learning, and also using them in ways that hit other students – on accident, but it’s happening. We’re not officially banning them, but we are asking you to help us keep them home if at all possible. If your student is using it when they shouldn’t or in a way that they shouldn’t, we’ll likely snag it and have them collect it at the end of the day or have you come and pick it up. It’s not a bad toy in and of itself, but it is creating something of a disruption. Thank you for your help!
