Copper Canyon Elementary School

Tooele County School District began bond projects immediately after the bond was approved by voters in the November 2020 election. As shortages for construction materials became a problem it was apparent Deseret Peak High School’s completion date of August 2024 would not be met.

Within the past two decades, it was recognized emotional well-being is closely tied to academics and that social-emotional learning is key to increasing positive behavior and mental wellness.

One of my own fondest childhood memories is of returning to school each fall. I remember the feeling of excitement about reuniting with classmates and getting a new backpack and clothes. I wondered what I would learn and who would be my new friend in the upcoming school year. My hope is that all our students feel this way.  We can all make this happen by being observant of our students and staff and their needs.
