It is summer project season at a number of locations throughout Jordan School District and crews are making a lot of progress getting schools ready for the arrival of students, teachers, and staff for the 2025-26 school year.

At Bingham High School they are hard at work on the west side of the school adding new parking which will be ready when school begins with 146 additional parking spaces.

At South Jordan Middle School, the cafeteria staff will come back to school with a brand new, updated kitchen. There is a lot of excitement for students too who will be able to use a new training and exercise room which is currently under construction. South Jordan Middle is also getting some new restrooms and the faculty lounge is being relocated.

Stay tuned for more updates on exciting summer projects in Jordan School District.

Thank you to the participants and sponsors of the 2025 Jordan Education Foundation’s “Links to Schools Golf Classic” at Glenmoor Golf Club. Over 120 golfers hit the links in four-person scrambles on a picture-perfect Utah summer day to have some fun, mingle with friends, and raise money for a good cause! All proceeds from the event benefit Jordan Education Foundation’s Classroom Grants program, which provides classroom grants in support of educators and students. 

We are already looking forward to seeing everyone out on the course again on September 25 for Jordan Education Foundation’s Twilight Golf event! Learn more at jordaneducationfoundation.org.
