We invite all citizens of Utah to become informed and — better yet — become a champion of public education.
Utah has 41 school districts, each shaped by the communities they serve and governed by locally elected boards of education. Every square foot of this great state is served by a public school district. Every child who resides in any place in Utah has the guarantee and the right to be educated in a public school. Our shared commitment is to every child, regardless of where those children call home or whatever their circumstances may be. None are turned away.
We write as two of the elected officials answerable to the families in Canyons District, which serves 33,000 students. Canyons students have opportunities for college preparation courses, athletic and performing arts experiences, advanced language courses, career certifications in the medical or technology fields and many more options that align with their interests and skills.
