Recently, Syracuse Jr High School student Colton received recognition from the Davis School District for participating in the Emmy-nominated and Utah Best of State winning video Rock Your Socks.

Rock Your Socks was inspired by Colton, who encouraged everyone to wear mismatched socks on March 21 for World Down Syndrome Day, showing support and celebrating his little brother Hudson.

The magic captured in this video shows the culture of belonging that our students exemplify across the district.

These projects show how students and dedicated educators make a real difference in our schools and the community.

🌲✨ Festival of Trees 2025 ✨🌲
Our Student Government had an amazing time at the Festival of Trees! This year, our tree was generously donated by Walmart, and our incredible student government members — along with their families — donated all the themed baskets that helped bring it to life. 💙🎁

We’re proud to support such a meaningful cause. 100% of the proceeds go directly to Primary Children’s Hospital, helping kids and families in our community.

So grateful for everyone who contributed and came together to make this event special!
