MJHS started the Hope Squad last year. The mission statement of Hope Squad is to reduce the number of youth suicides in the state of Utah by providing education, training, and expertise in suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention.
Last Wednesday the Hope Squad members attended their annual retreat at Shadow Mountain. The mountains were beautiful and the time was well spent!
Mr. Baum and Mr. Jex did a great job with activities and team building exercises to help us get to know each other better and start working towards the goals we would like to meet as we go throughout the year. We are excited to start a new year and hope that we can help all students feel connected and valuable this coming school year!
