Principals:

This is a reminder that the deadline for submitting requests for courses to be included in the 2018-2019 Secondary Course Catalog is quickly approaching. We are accepting requests up to November 17th. If requests are not received by then, there is no guarantee that we will be able to process the course in time to be included in the printed edition.

You can use the fillable form for the Secondary Course Request Application to submit your course request electronically or print it out and send it with a Course Catalog Committee member. You can also send it directly to me through district mail.

The secondary course request form can also be located on the Jordan District website, under Resources/Forms and Documents/General, or at the following link:  jordandistrict.org/resources/forms/general/

The Research Review Committee has reviewed a research project in which your school has been asked to participate.

Project Title: “Assessment of Nutrition and Physical Activity Knowledge, Attitudes and Behaviors of Students in Jordan School District:

Applicant: Nica Clark

The project has been approved by the District Research Review Committee.  The applicant has been directed to contact you to discuss the extent of the project and to obtain your permission to conduct the study at your school.  Participation in the study is at your discretion.  If you have questions or concerns relating to participation, please contact Ben Jameson at 801-567-8243.
