Students of the Week
Samuel Kravet
Samuel is consistent with turning in his schoolwork, and I never have to wonder whether he will be at rehearsal or not. If all students showed his level of dedication to learning, I might be out of a job.
Kache Reilley
Not only has Kache shown a high rate of understanding for the knowledge taught in my class, he is also consistently helpful in things outside of academia. He is always among the first to help move chairs where I want them or put them away when needed, And to otherwise volunteer when I ask for help with something.

We hope you consider joining our RJHS Concert Band, in collaboration with students and teachers from Union, Altamont and Duchesne High School and community members from our wonderful Basin Community!
The concert begins at 7:00 p.m. and will display an incredible range of power, emotion and delight in the music performed!
Our students have been working so hard, and we are so excited for all to come and enjoy!
Your attendance and support for this event, whether on or off stage, is greatly appreciated and welcome! Research has proved that music has a profoundly positive impact on student academics, achievement, and development of social and life skills. It is vital to our students and to our Uintah Basin communities and we appreciate all who support the arts! And our students especially love to see their teachers there in support of them!
Thank you, and we hope to see you there!

Thank you for your willingness to provide feedback through this School Climate Survey! The information you provide in this survey will remain anonymous. Your complete honesty will help the school understand what is going well and what needs improvement. There is a limit of one survey per person per school. (Exception: A person who is employed at the school and has a child attending the school will be allowed to take separate surveys. They will need a separate email address.) There is no opportunity to provide written feedback in the School Climate Survey, but there will be an opportunity to provide written feedback in a separate way.
People of all roles will go into the same survey, however, there will be different questions for those in different roles. The survey is designed in such a way as to inform schools of their progress toward the mission of our school district, the DCSD Portrait of a Graduate, and Portrait of a Staff in the areas of education, etiquette, and environment.
Please use the following link to complete the survey:
