Second Grade Olympics were fabulous! They all looked great in their matching t-shirts. The students also had fun participating in olympic events. They even had opening and closing ceremonies!
Ruth Francom, Shirley Esquerra, and Kathy Buchanan-Childs are retiring this year. They are amazing teachers and they will be greatly missed at Orchard Hills! They have been a great asset to Orchard Hills. Good luck to them!
The fourth grade classes had their Mountain Man Rendezvous. They had so much fun!

Lynn Steele and Sue Miller were awarded as Outstanding Employees at Orchard Hills! Congratulations!!
The kindergartners went on a field trip to the Museum of Natural Curiosity at Thanksgiving Point. What a fun field trip! For most of them it was also their first time on the school bus and they were just as excited to ride the bus too!
The first graders had so much fun at the zoo!
The Ririe-Woodbury Dance Company came down from Salt Lake to do an assembly for the students at Orchard Hills. They do contempory dance and they taught the students about dance. Dance is expressing yourself with movement. They taught 4 different elements to the students. The 4 elements are: space, shape, time, and energy. The kids loved it!
The students at Orchard Hills had an assembly where they learned about internet safety. They were taught and reminded to never give out their personal information online and to tell a trusted adult if they see something that scares them, makes them feel uncomfortable, or confused. Remember to be smart when you use the internet. Here is the Net Smart website if you want more information: http://www.netsmartzkids.org
