Athletic Director Message
Dear Canyon View Families,
Welcome to the Canyon View High School community! We are thrilled to have you join us as we begin another exciting academic year.
At Canyon View, we prioritize co-curricular activities to aid in the growth and development of our students. In just three graduating classes, we have had multiple students sign to compete at the DI, DII, DIII, NAIA, and Juco levels. In the past two years our athletes and coaches have brought home 7 State Championships, and our very own Connor Mattison from the Class of 2023 signed with the Minnesota Twins!
Our commitment to excellence extends beyond athletics. Our students excel academically and are active participants in service clubs such as BSU and Key Club. The importance of community and leading with high character is at the heart of everything we do. We strive to embody the Jaguar Way, emphasizing Innovation, Diversity, Character, Community and Pride.
We look forward to a fantastic year ahead and are excited to see our students continue to thrive both in and out of the classroom.
Andrea Hudson
Assistant Principal/Athletic Director
