We are excited to recognize our September Dons of the Month, nominated by our Science Department! A Don of the Month is a student who truly lives our motto: “Here, we learn for LIFE.” We are proud to celebrate these outstanding Dons and the example they set each day at SFHS!

SFHS Students, it’s time to make your community service count! We are excited to launch our Fall Service Challenge running from September 23 through October 23.

Whether you are helping out at a local food bank, raking leaves for neighbors, or assisting at school events, any volunteer work you complete during these dates can earn you a spot at a Utah Jazz game! At the end of the challenge, the top 3 students with the most hours recorded specifically inside this challenge category will win tickets to an upcoming Jazz game.

1. Access the Portal: Go to the SFHS Volunteer Dashboard.

2. Register First: You MUST click into the Utah Jazz Ticket Challenge opportunity and sign up before logging any hours.

3. Log Hours ONLY Under This Challenge: When submitting your time, you must log your hours directly under the Utah Jazz Ticket Challenge page. Hours logged under general independent service, student council, or any other category will NOT transfer or count toward the competition.

4. Dates Matter: Service must be completed between September 23 and October 23.

Sign up on the dashboard today, start serving, and get those hours logged under the challenge to win!
