It's Foothill Elementary's Teacher Appreciation Week! From April 4-8th the PTA is helping us celebrate the incredible educators who are shaping our kids future! Thank you!

We are holding a District Celebration on Thursday, February 12th at Timpanogos High School beginning at 6:30. The event includes performances from our high school music groups, an opportunity to meet Superintendent Jensen, and a new district logo reveal. We hope community members will attend!

Represent Foothill and join a Timpanogos School District Boundary Study Focus Group.

Earlier this afternoon, there was an accident on I-15 in the Lindon area. Northbound I-15 is currently closed and freeway and arterial roads are all experiencing significant delays. This road closure will impact busing throughout the district. We anticipate delays at multiple schools, including activity buses. All routes will be completed, but it is unknown how long this will take.
A huge THANK YOU to all of the parents who have made classroom donations this year. We appreciate your generosity !

Reflections is coming up! If your child would like to participate this year the theme is I Belong! For more information go to https://www.utahpta.org/ref

Thanks you!

We will have a brand new HVAC chiller installed over the weekend.
In the meantime:
+ We will be drawing in fresh air and running coolers all night.
+ There will be temporary AC units connected to the HVAC system.
+ We will encourage additional water breaks for students.
+ The district will send substitutes to give our teachers additional breaks.
With these measures and with cooler temperatures tomorrow, I anticipate a much better day. The district facilities team will monitor the temperatures closely throughout the day. There is a contingency plan in place if the heat becomes excessive.
Thank you for your patience and concern for our students and staff members today. Our plan is to maintain a regular school schedule tomorrow. Schools are a safe place for students, but I recognize that these conditions can be challenging. If your child has a pre-existing condition or is sensitive to heat, you are welcome to keep them home tomorrow.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: As the new school year begins, please be aware that there will be a lot of additional traffic around our school properties, especially during drop-off and pick-up times. This will be particularly noticeable during the first few weeks of school as we welcome students and as families settle into routines. Please be extremely patient, and remember to put the safety of all students first.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: All Alpine School District offices and facilities will be closed on Friday, July 4 in recognition of Independence Day.
