On Monday, September 15th, our teachers were in for a sweet surprise! Falcons brought lemonade to show their love and appreciation on Teacher Development Day. Thank you, Falcons, for thinking of our phenomenal teachers and reminding them how much they are valued!
Kadence worked hard in class and earned a special reward, getting to read with Mrs. Stoddard!
Way to go, Kadence, for making great choices and showing what it means to be Falcon Strong!

On Friday, our Falcons showed their support for Drug Prevention Day by wearing red. To top it off, we enjoyed donuts as a sweet reminder that we “Do Not” do drugs!
Way to go, Falcons, for making healthy choices and standing strong together!

Nothing says fall quite like biting into fresh, local corn, so don’t miss out on this tasty treat.
Come hungry, Falcons, and join us for some homegrown goodness at lunch!

Today our Falcons wore white and sunglasses to keep our eyes on safety and shade out dangers!
Tomorrow we’ll salute the flag and show we stand united by wearing a hat or dressing in red, white, and blue.

Mrs. Jumonville's 3rd-grade class took a trip to the world of The Wind in the Willows! After reading the story, students brought Mole, Rat, Toad, and Badger to life with their own character portraits.
We have an incredibly rare opportunity to participate in the 9/11 Remembrance Event being held at the Spanish Fork Fairgrounds. This is not just for students, it is for all our families. Please take some time today , Thursday, September 11th through Saturday, September 13th from 9 am to 9 pm to attend this wonderful event. We are so grateful to the Major Brent Taylor Foundation for putting on this event and helping us to "REMEMBER".
My name is Heidi Whittaker, and I serve as a Parent Consultant for the Utah Parent Center, contracted specifically with Nebo School District to provide parents with free resources and support for children with special needs.
This year marks my 20th year helping Nebo families as an early dispute resolution provider! My role is to support positive parent–school communication and advocacy, helping parents understand education options, procedural safeguards, and resources. Thank you for all you do to support Nebo students and families, and for helping me connect parents with important resources!
JUST A FEW REMINDERS:
~Free Parenting Workshops:
I partner with Nebo to provide free workshops for parents throughout the school year. I will send you workshop information periodically so it can be shared with families throughout the District.
~FERPA & Communication
Due to FERPA law, I do not have access to any parent contact list. I rely on schools to help me get information and resources into the hands of families.
~Brochures/Business Cards Available
Let me know if you would like hard copies of my brochures or my business cards for your front office or school conference rooms. Many IEP and 504 teams include these with the procedural safeguards they give to parents at meetings. You are also more than welcome to print and use the flyer below.
~School Staff Can Contact Me Directly!
A common question I receive every year from Nebo employees is: “Can I contact Heidi directly if I have a question or concern?” The answer is "Yes!" Any conversation with me is confidential, whether you are a parent or a school employee. Because I am contracted through the Utah Parent Center and not a direct employee of Nebo School District, I cannot initiate contact with Nebo staff without first obtaining permission from the parent. Some parents choose not to grant me permission, so when school employees reach out directly to me, it can often be helpful in allowing me to better understand situations and support families more effectively. Again, your conversations with me are confidential. You can find me at Heidi.Whittaker@nebo.edu or by call/text(fastest) at: 801-228-8144.
~Spanish Speaking Parent Support
Although I do not speak Spanish fluently, I can connect Spanish-speaking parents with a bilingual parent consultant based at the main Utah Parent Center office. I am still available to provide support during meetings and as needed, working alongside this bilingual consultant to ensure families receive the assistance they need.
