Action Items

Last Chance to Complete Student Surveys! Today is your student’s final opportunity to complete their Course Evaluation Surveys, which are available in their Homeroom Canvas course. Please encourage them to participate—these surveys offer a valuable opportunity to provide feedback on their Live and Self-Paced courses and mentors, helping us improve classes.

Announcements

Mid-Semester Assignment Deadlines: Midterms are next week! Students in both Live and Self-Paced classes must submit all assignments from the first half of the semester by October 15 at 5:00 PM MT. After this deadline, midterm assignments will lock, and late submissions will not be accepted.

Please note: if a student fails their Self-Paced classes, they may not be eligible to take Self-Paced courses in the future.

Virtual Paying for College Fair: Join our school counselors and special guests for our Paying for College Fair on Wednesday, October 22, at 2:00 PM MT. This event will cover scholarships, the FAFSA, and other forms of financial aid, with time for questions and answers. Attendees will also have the chance to win swag and prizes! We encourage all interested high school students and parents to participate. The Zoom link will be shared in the LAU Hub on the morning of the event.

MS Digital Safety Course now available in the LAU Hub: Middle school students will notice new Digital Safety assignments in the LAU Hub. These assignments are not for credit and are designed to be conversation starters for students and their parents, siblings, or friends to help them understand how technology is influencing them and the measures they need to take to remain safe. We encourage parents to review these assignments with their students and have these important conversations together!

2025 Annual Core Standards Survey: Each year, the Utah State Board of Education (USBE) administers an annual survey seeking feedback from educators, parents, students, and other interested community members on Utah’s Core Standards. The survey provides the USBE with key insights into the potential need for revisions to the current standards. You can review the current standards by visiting this page, and complete the survey by October 31. The results are expected to be reported to the Standards and Assessment Committee on December 5, 2026.
