Our students shined at the TSA State competition, showcasing their skills and creativity. Click here for the fantastic results:

We are thrilled to announce that Ms. Black's Entrepreneurship Academy at Mountain Ridge High School recently partnered with a local franchise startup, Paymore, to launch their business with a grand opening event. This collaboration was an outstanding opportunity for our students to dive into the world of business and entrepreneurship.

Event Highlights:
Grand Opening: These business students flawlessly planned and executed the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony, showcasing their skills in event planning and management.

Promotional Efforts: From creating marketing materials to organizing activities, the students covered all aspects of the promotional campaign.

Community Engagement: The South Valley Chamber of Commerce graced the event, allowing students to network and engage with the business community.

Industry Insight: Students gained valuable insights into the behind-the-scenes operations of starting a franchise business.

Paymore was incredibly impressed with the MRHS business students' drive and commitment, which contributed significantly to the success of their Grand Opening. As a token of appreciation, Paymore has made a generous donation to the MRHS DECA Program, further supporting our students' learning and growth in entrepreneurship.

This year we had two award winners at the 53rd Annual Utah All-State High School Art Show at the Springville Art Museum. These students, Braden Wilcox and Cambryn Vance, won Honorable Mentions for District 4. These students were invited to two events, the Awards Ceremony and Capitol Day, where the students got to meet their Legislative Representatives. Getting an artwork into this show is already hard, but getting an award from this show is outstanding. Congrats to Braden and Cambryn!

Miss Blue's Drawing 1 classes just finished their Blind Contour Projects. These are wacky drawings where students do not look at their paper while drawing. They added fun designs and colors with different materials to make the projects pop. Art 1020 also just finished their first project: the 2 Point Perspective Project. These drawings students did by adding vanishing points and horizon lines that went past the edge of the paper. Students then made buildings that had extra details and shading or coloring. You can see all of these projects and more in the Blue hallway.

The following students all advanced to the semi-final round of the Sterling Scholar competition. Please congratulate them if you see them!
