Comment Posted By Mayor Brent Taylor

Congratulations Officer Jason Child!

"Northern Utah School Resource Officer of the Year"

Huge congratulations to Officer. Jason Child who was recognized last week for his excellent work with our school students.  Excerpt from Officer. Child's nomination: "Jason has been employed with North Ogden City since September of 2001.  He began his career in Animal Services and then transferred over to the Police Department two years later.  Jason is currently our School Resource Officer and has done a tremendous job of working with administrators, faculty, and students to improve overall relations at all Weber District schools in North Ogden.  He has been able to focus his efforts on students that are deficient, both socially or academically, and has given them confidence to improve their grades and attendance.  Officer Child recently established the Tri-City Youth Court involving student volunteers from Weber High, North Ogden Junior High, and Orion Junior High, which has given them the opportunity to learn the process of court proceedings and how the judicial system works.  Students referred to the Youth Court system are given the chance to avoid juvenile court trials and a juvenile criminal record.  Officer Child oversees our crossing guards, scout and community projects, youth tours, and participates in the Weber Coalition for Suicide Prevention program.  Jason teaches DARE at all three elementary schools, and has taught Safety, Texting, Bullying, and the dangers of Alcohol curriculum to students at North Ogden Junior High.  He has helped provide annual ALERRT training at our schools too.  Officer Child is well liked by his students because he has a genuine concern for their well-being and academic achievements."

uniors and Sophomores Appointment information for your Plan for College and Career Readiness meetings with your counselor will be mailed home shortly.  We will meet with Sophomores from October through November.  We will meet with Juniors November through January.  These are important meetings to plan for next school year and beyond.  $$$ Scholarships $$$ Be sure to check your wsdstudent email account to access the WHS Scholarship Bulletin.  Apply for every scholarship you qualify for!  Every year, several scholarships go un-awarded due to lack of submissions!!!  Apply apply apply.  Sign up for a fastweb.com account as well to get more scholarship offers. Parents, Be APP Aware! You may be thinking your students are downloading apps because they are just a simple way for them to keep in contact with their friends. This is certainly true for most students, but unfortunately, even innocent use of most of these apps can land a kid in a situation he/she never intended to be in.  There are several apps that appear harmless but can actually lead to bullying/harassment.  The most important thing you can do as a parent to protect your children from dangers that are associated with the use of these apps is to talk with them frequently about their internet activity.
