America is turning 250 — and our students have something to say.
Davis School District is hosting Voices of a Nation: Student Perspectives on 250 Years of America, a districtwide speaking event aligned with America 250 Utah.
Students from every school and grade level are invited to apply to deliver an original speech about America’s past, present or future.
Selected students will receive mentorship and take the stage on May 4, 2026, at the Davis Instructional Services Center in Layton. The event will be professionally produced and live streamed for the community.
You don’t have to be famous to have something worth saying.

and valentines for the residents at the Family Tree Assisted Living Center.
National Junior Honors Society worked hard to show their care for the elderly at
the center.
But, they didn’t stop at just making the valentines, on Monday, February 2nd
they also took the time to personally go to the living center and tape them to the
doors. NJHS members walked to the Family Tree Assisted Living Center after
school on Monday with the hope of brightening the day of people living at the
center. The members worked together to put the hearts and valentines on the doors
of the elderly, smiling at people along the way. With working as a group, the NJHS
members were able to attack all of the residents doors with love in a short period of
time.
National Junior Honors Society members and advisors work hard to help
their peers, bringing joy to those they serve. NJHS makes West Point Junior High
even better, boosting our image. We are so grateful for all that NJHS does to make
our school and community greater!
