Art City Elementary, in Springville, on Friday, December 5, 2014, third-grade students invited their dads, uncles, grandpas, and friends to come eat a donut and read a book.  There was a good turn out of “Dad’s” for the donuts.  For the students whose dad couldn't come they shared a dad or took turns reading with another student.  The dads stayed for about 20 minutes and seemed to really enjoy this time with their students.  Thank you Dads for sharing your time with us. 

The fourth annual Art City Chess tournament was held on Saturday December 6th at Art City Elementary School in Springville, Utah. There were 175 students that participated in the tournament and about 250 supporters to cheer them on.  We want to thank all those who helped in any way to make this tournament a success.  The following are the top ten results of the tournament:  (The number represents the place the school or the student achieved).

Before Thanksgiving Art City Elementary first-grade classes performed for the school then for their parents. Thanksgiving was the theme; from "A to Z" they gave reasons to be thankful and had songs to go along with the theme.

The sixth-grade students always study a unit of Ancient Egypt during their social studies. Students get to create a Sarcophagus (It is a box-like funeral receptacle for a corpse, most commonly carved in stone, and displayed above ground, though they may be buried). The students at Art City create their sarcophagus to represent who they are and what they like to do.
