Springville High English Teacher Joanna Ellsworth will have a poem published called "Dissociative Memory" by Southern Quill which is a literary journal that publishes short creative works and is run out of Dixie State University. The poem is dedicated to her father, who passed away a few ago, and it meditates on how, when we lose a loved one, we sometimes have difficulty recalling them in their entirety. In her father's case, Ellsworth became fixated on his hands, which manifests in the poem. 

Springville High Junior Tristan McAfee competed on April 22 at the ASL State Competition and won the 3rd Place bronze medal for her acrylic art work.

The theme of her art was language. Her inspiration came from a deaf artist named Chuck Baird. McAfee created the art work just for the competition; she thinks it was the best piece she has ever done. She has been creating this kind of art for a long time.

The competition was hosted at Herriman High School with many other schools in the region.

Senior Nicole Metler competed at the ASL State Competition on April 22 and brought home the 3rd Place bronze medal for her “Same Hand Shape Story.”  Metler decide to do her sign story about wartime. Metler had to create a story using up to three hand shapes. Not to be confused with hand signs, ha and shape is either “open hand” or “closed hand,” which can have many different signs.

Springville High Sophomore Monet Jorgenson loves writing and she has found that she has a real talent for it.  Recently, Jorgenson had one of her poems published on the DSU Southern Quill.  She said that it was about “celestial spoonfulls.”  When asked what inspired her.  She responded, “Just space, and the stars.”

She’s proud of how her poem turned out.  However, this wasn’t her first publication, it was her third!

This month Caitlin Washnock, a Senior at Springville High School, had one of her art pieces published in Sugar Rascals; which is an online literary magazine featuring art and writing from teens.

Washnock created her art work in Commercial Art class with Adobe Illustrator.

Washnock made a polygon art image of Darth Vader. “I have always loved Star Wars,” said Washnock, “I wanted to show my passion and appreciation for Star Wars through art.”

Washnock referenced an image she found online. The results were incredible.
