Davis School District outlines importance of 1421 hours until school year's end

In a heartfelt message delivered to the students and staff of the Davis School District, Assistant Superintendent Logan Toon emphasized the importance of making the most of the remaining 1,421 hours until the school year concludes. With a blend of encouragement and reflection, Toon urged students to focus on their studies, prepare for tests, and engage in school activities that foster community spirit.

Toon highlighted the diverse ways students might spend their time, from academic responsibilities to participating in choir performances, theater productions, and sporting events. Each of these activities, he noted, contributes to a vibrant school culture and enhances the learning environment. For teachers, the message was clear: the coming hours would be filled with hard work, dedication, and a commitment to student success.

Central to Toon's message was the district's ongoing focus on belonging and inclusion, alongside the development of high reliability schools. He acknowledged the progress made in these areas while recognizing that much work remains. As the school year progresses, he encouraged everyone to take a moment to connect with those around them, particularly students who may feel isolated or overlooked.

“Caring creates a sense of belonging,” Toon stated, reinforcing the idea that when students feel included, they are better prepared to learn. He concluded with a call to action, urging everyone to work hard, study diligently, and make a positive impact in the lives of others. As the clock ticks down to the last bell, the message is clear: every hour counts, and the efforts made now will pay dividends in the future.
