Youth School Board meets with Nebo School District Board of Education

A highlight for the Nebo School Board of Education is to meet with students from each of the high schools and junior high schools on a quarterly basis. Each Youth Board representative is selected by his/her principal to be a spokesperson for their school.

The Nebo School Board took this opportunity to ask the Youth Board students questions concerning college and career readiness, technology and one-to-one devices, and readiness for mathematics.

An advantage of these group discussions for students is to learn from each other and implement successful ideas in their own schools. This sharing opportunity promotes friendships between the schools in our Nebo School District that is growing about 650 students yearly with over 32,000 students this year.

Front row with students in no particular order: Josie Nelson and Zach Gowans Payson High, Kenny Van Ausdal and Rachael Black Salem Hills High, Preston Adams and Peggy Sorenson Springville High, Josh Jensen and another Josh Jensen Maple Mountain High, Oyati Tubby and Colin Speers Landmark High.

Back Row: Secondary Director John DeGraffenried, Nebo School Board of Education: KL Tischner, Vice President Shannon Acor,  Superintendent Rick Nielsen, President Kristen Betts, Dean Rowley, and Randy Boothe.
