The mayors of the five cities within Canyons School District, as well as the mayor of Salt Lake County, have written and signed a letter in support of Canyons Superintendent David S. Doty and the work and direction of the Canyons School District and Board of Education. The letter, dated April 26, 2012, was addressed to the Canyons Board of Education and signed by Alta Mayor Tom Pollard, Cottonwood Heights Mayor Kelvyn Cullimore Jr., Midvale Mayor JoAnn B. Seghini, Draper Mayor Darrell H. Smith, Sandy Mayor Tom Dolan, and Salt Lake County Mayor Peter Corroon.

“We, as mayors, encourage the Board and Superintendent to not allow the efforts of a few to distract you from important educational goals and urge them to continue to put the parents and children of Canyons School District first. Change is always difficult, but we stand firmly behind the Board of Education and Superintendent. You have our full support as we work together for the families and students we all serve,” the letter states.
