Suicide Prevention

If you have a life threatening emergency dial 911 immediately.

Canyons School District provides crisis prevention, preparedness, response and recovery through the PREPaRE model. This model strives to prevent, prepare for and respond to crisis events, crisis reactions and school crisis teams’ response to crisis exposure. Crisis event response are determined on the variables of predictability, consequence, duration, and intensity. This model is consistent with guidance and direction offered by the U.S. Departments of Education (2003) and Homeland Security(2004). It follows the cycles of crisis response: prevention and mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. (School Crisis and Prevention and Intervention, 2009)

Lucie Chamberlain

Alta View Elementary

If a movie about super teachers were ever made, Lucie Chamberlain would be a prime candidate for a leading role. Fortunately for her kindergarten students at Alta View Elementary, she already thrives in a supporting role for them. Parents thank her for being a “super teacher.” She is also described as an “amazing colleague.” Whether students need help in the classroom or from home while sick, Lucie goes above and beyond to help them learn, overcome fears, and feel important and cared for. Lucie is the reason a number of kids went from hating school to loving it, according to parents. The way she exudes patience, sweetness, positive energy, and love for her students with special needs melts is appreciated and admired. One parent noted: “Both my kids wish she could be their teacher forever.” Another added:  “She treats every student like their learning and their feelings are her priority.” Super teacher, indeed!
