It’s Thanksgiving Break starting tomorrow, and we hope you have a wonderful holiday. We have a few reminders and tips to send you off with this holiday:

Parking Lot Reminders

We’ve been observing traffic flow, and the south parking lot gets backed up quite a bit in the mornings. We ask that, if you use the south lot in the morning, you plan to turn right as you exit the parking lot. The majority of the backup happens because people are waiting to turn left. This isn’t a problem during the day, or even really in the afternoons during pickup. However, it would help tremendously during drop off if you could plan to turn right if you use the south lot. Thank you for your patience, and we will continue to monitor the situation and work with the district and city to ensure a good experience for everyone.

Canvas Observer

SoJo continues to expand the use of Canvas as a communication tool. Many of you likely view Canvas when your student logs in. You can also view Canvas with your own account as a Parent Observer. Becoming a Canvas Parent Observer is a two-step process. The links below will take you to the instructions to set up a Parent Observer Account. 

1. Student generates an Observer Code 

2. Parent uses the Observer Code to Create an Observer Account

Submit Your Photos for the Memory Book – We Need Your Help!

We are currently in need of the following photos. Parents and students please upload yours today! 

• Freshman Sports Collage: Candid shots from fall or winter sports (practice, games, post-game).
• Performing Arts: Photos from plays, choir, dance, orchestra, or band (on stage, backstage, post-performance).
• Collage Pages: Everyday moments of students not in activities. Photos at school (before/after school, passing time, lunch) are best. Group shots outside school are okay, but avoid home, vacation, or non-school backgrounds.

How to Submit: Upload photos here and include student names if possible.

Note: Photos will be reviewed for consideration but are not guaranteed to be included.

Students Must Be Checked Out to Leave Campus

We’ve started seeing more students just walking out of the building and not getting checked out – especially when parents are the ones picking them up. Please remember that we need to verify your identity and document that you have picked them up for safety reasons. If students choose to leave without being checked out – even if it’s with their parents, we have to mark their attendance accordingly.

Locks and Lockers 

It is the time of year when students start to bring coats, gloves, umbrellas, etc. PLEASE encourage your students to use their lockers! Each student was assigned a locker at the beginning of the school year. Their locker number and combination can be found in Skyward. This is also a good reminder to secure valuables throughout the school. Do not leave items unattended in the locker room, lunch room, halls, etc. If you ride a bike, LOCK it up. If you put items in a locker – LOCK it. 

Pictures with Santa at BHS!

We are excited to invite you to Bingham’s first annual Pictures with Santa which will take place during our True Blue Carnival!! This event is a wonderful opportunity to create cherished memories while supporting a great cause.

Event Details:

• Date: December 10th
• Time: 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
• Location: Bingham HS Cafeteria

For just $15, you can have a professional photo taken with Santa. These photos will be delivered digitally, allowing you to share and cherish them with friends and family.

This year’s fundraiser will support the Kauri Sue Hamilton School, helping to provide essential resources and opportunities for students. Your participation will make a significant difference in their lives.

We look forward to seeing you there and capturing the holiday spirit together!

In this ParentSquare, we have important information about Citizenship grades in each course, and about a chance for you and your student to give the school and district input about your experience in Jordan School District.

Sharing Citizenship with Parents

In an effort to better communicate important information about your child’s citizenship (learning behaviors and social behaviors) in class, we are in the process of making some improvements to how we communicate citizenship to parents. Please be patient as we roll these changes out over the next few weeks.:

• Citizenship Number in Every Class as an Unweighted Assignment
  • In both Skyward and Canvas, you will see an assignment in its own category called citizenship. Just like other assignment grades, citizenship is graded during the term in every class with the same 1, 2, 3, 4 you see on assignments. You’ll find this as an unweighted category in every class (meaning it doesn’t affect the academic grade).
  • These numbers correlate directly with U, N, S, and H that you will see at the end of the term as a citizenship letter grade, but allows us to communicate more specifics during the term with a rubric as described below.
• Citizenship Rubric in Canvas
  • If a student has a 3 (S), it means they are doing everything they should in every category of our citizenship rubric. If they have anything other than a 3 (S), you can now go into Canvas and see where they have lost points (or gone above, for a 4).
  • To access this, go to the Canvas course and choose the Citizenship assignment for that course. You’ll be able to see the entire rubric, including where your student excelled or can improve. You can find a direct link to the Canvas assignment in the description of the assignment in Skyward.
• Citizenship Categories on the Rubric
  • The academic grade shows what they know and can do as it relates to the content of the class, and the citizenship grade shows how they perform in class as a part of a school community, as well as how they contribute (positively or negatively) to the learning of others. Those categories are:
    • HOW I LEARN (Work Skills & Habits)
      • On-Time Work Completion
      • Academic Integrity
      • Readiness to Learn
    • HOW I ACT (Human Interactions)
      • Respect for Adults
      • Respect for Peers
      • School-Appropriate Language
• Communication Goals
  • Whenever a citizenship grade is dropped, the teacher will communicate with the student and parent why the grade was dropped. This will be a phone call, an email, a parentsquare message, or a comment on the assignment in Canvas/Skyward. If you have any questions about the change and how to improve the grade, you can reach out to the teacher directly.

We believe strongly that collaboration with parents makes a huge difference when it comes to the learning environment at school, and we appreciate your help and involvement in what happens in the classroom. If you have any questions about a citizenship grade marked on a rubric in Canvas, don’t hesitate to reach out to the teacher for specifics on how to improve their citizenship in class.

Student Input Surveys

We would love to have your children’s input on the student version of the stakeholder feedback survey described below. You were able to opt-in to this survey during registration, but if you were unable to complete registration and/or would like your student to participate, please complete this form and return it to the main office or email the form to danielle.sosa@jordandistrict.org. We plan to administer the survey during Prowl on November 26th, so it is essential that you return the form ASAP so that we can ensure your student gets the chance to take the survey.

Parent Stakeholder Feedback Survey

Dear Parents/Guardians: 

We want to hear about your experience with your student’s education. We invite you to participate in completing Jordan School District’s Stakeholder Input Survey. This survey includes questions about your student’s learning environment, academic support, school safety and school security. It also includes questions specific to individual educators who support your student’s education such as teachers, school administrators, counselors, and others.  Your responses will be very helpful in improving learning conditions and supports in your student’s school as well as school safety and security.

The survey will take about 10-15 minutes to complete.  Please submit your responses by Tuesday, November 26th. The survey is completely confidential.  Survey results will only be reported as group responses. There are no right or wrong answers. We just want to know about your personal experiences and observations. 

As you respond to each item, think about your own personal experiences as a parent, caregiver or guardian at your student’s school. Please answer all of the questions.  The survey allows you to answer questions about multiple teachers and support staff.  Even though taking this part of the survey will require extra time, your feedback will be invaluable to teachers as they strive to meet the needs of their students.

Please complete the survey by Tuesday, November 26, 2024.

The link to complete the survey will be sent directly to your email by the district.

Thank you for your time and participation!

Welcome back from Fall Break! We’re starting 2nd quarter and a district-wide personal electronics policy tomorrow, and we also get to have Halloween this week. Here’s a reminder of our Halloween dress guidelines:

Halloween is a great chance to see the personality and creativity of our students. We want the day to be fun, and we also want to be able to have a productive day in class. With that in mind, what follows is a list of guidelines to help us do both:

• The School Dress Code and the Student Code of Conduct still apply
• Students should come to school already dressed with any makeup or hair color already applied
• Students should avoid costumes that degrade any other group of people
• We must be able to easily see who you are
• Avoid masks worn on the face
• Makeup or other costume additions must still allow us to identify you
• We must be able to move in the halls and function in class, including avoiding disruptions to teachers and other students
• Costumes must be safe, and make others feel safe
• No weapons or facsimiles of weapons
• Footwear must be worn all day

Above all, if you’re aren’t sure you should wear it, just don’t. We can’t wait to see what you come up with!

Tickets for The Wizard of Oz Youth Edition are now available. Tickets are free, but please make a reservation through our ticketing website. Performances are November 14, 15, 16, 18, and 19 at 7:00 PM. There is also a matinee performance on November 16 at 2:00 PM. Doors open 30 minutes before each show. In order to ensure ticket availability for all patrons, please only reserve tickets for performances you plan to attend.

Fee Reminders

If your student is taking a class with a class fee (art, foods, French, etc.), those fees are now visible and can be paid by logging into Skyward. You can also view and pay Registration Fees in Skyward. Lunch balances can be paid in Skyward by going to Fee Management. You can also add money to your student’s account in person, but only via cash or check. You can use a card to pay class and registration fees.

Cell Phone Policy Starts TuesdayWe’ve sent more detailed information out before today, but just a reminder that the Jordan School District Board of Education updated the personal electronics policy (often called the ‘cell phone policy’) effective 10/29/24. The full policy can be found here. You can watch this video to learn more.

End of Q1, Fall Break & Grade Transmittal Day

This Friday marks the end of the first quarter and Monday is the start of Fall Break. The Monday after Fall Break is designated as grade transmittal day and students won’t attend on that day. This means that the first day of the second quarter is October 29th. We hope you have a wonderful and restful Fall Break!

Updated Cell Phone Policy

The Jordan School District Board of Education updated the personal electronics policy (often called the ‘cell phone policy’) effective 10/29/24. The full policy can be found here. You can watch this video to learn more. Our student handbook has been updated to reflect these changes, and you can see that addition to our handbook below:

In short, for secondary schools, all personal electronics, including cell phones, smart watches, bluetooth headphones, etc. are not allowed during class time. The policy specifically states that devices must be silent and out of sight, meaning that if it is seen or heard during class, it’s a violation of the policy. 

The consequences of violating this policy are also specifically outlined in the policy:

• 1st Violation
  • Device is stored in a secure location (Attendance Office) and the STUDENT can pick up the phone at the end of the school day.
• 2nd Violation & Beyond
  • Device is stored in a secure location (Attendance Office) and the PARENT can pick up the phone at the end of the school day.
  • Further consequences can be determined by the school as needed.

A FEW NOTES:

It’s worth noting that there is no warning system written into this policy, which means that the device will be confiscated the very first time it’s used during class time. 

Also note that it is not specific to a location (a classroom), but to the time when students should be in class, which means students using a hall pass or who should otherwise be in class should likewise not be using any such devices.

Violations of this policy will also be addressed in the citizenship grade under “Respect for Adults” or “Readiness to Learn” categories of the citizenship rubric. Please remember that the school is not responsible for lost or stolen electronic devices.

Panorama Survey This Week

Students will be taking our district’s Panorama survey this week. This is the same surrey given in the fall, winter and spring each year. This survey gives us insight into how students feel about school and helps us drive change for our school culture. The survey will only be administered to students whose parents gave permission for the survey during registration. This survey will be given to students during class and should only take about 15-20 minutes. Students will be asked how they think and feel about school. Here is a link to some of the questions that your student may be asked. 

This data will be used alongside academic, behavioral, and attendance records in order to support the whole child. By using Panorama, our school will be able to act on data and plan solutions at the school, classroom, and student level. Thank you so much for your support at home. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact your student’s school counselor.
