Ever wonder what UVU Live Interactive students do in their classes? In this Astronomy class a lesson about the moon led to a lively discussion about Leap Year. You may think that Leap Year occurs every four years, but there's actually more to it. If you recognize one of these students, ask them what the exceptions are. #wearesouthsummit #utpubliced #uvu

JAN. 10, 2023: Due to snow accumulation, schools in the South Summit School District will implement a two-hour delayed start this morning.
In doing so, the district will follow its standard procedures with schools starting two hours later than their normal start time. Students will still be dismissed at the regular school end time.
Because of transportation issues and other logistics, any before-school programs and field trips scheduled to begin prior to the late-start time are cancelled.
All district school busses will also be on a two-hour delay and they, like private vehicles, may be slowed due to inclement weather.
As always, parents may choose to keep their student at home anytime they feel conditions are unsafe to travel to school. When those situations arise, school administrators and teachers will work with students so that they can complete any schoolwork that they may have missed.
As the second quarter wraps up, let's take a look back and see what has kept us busy. #wearesouthsummit #utpubliced
