Priming Utah’s School-To-Work Pipeline

Where ‘what if’ becomes ‘what’s next’

Too often, students leave high school unsure how their learning connects to their future. At the same time, employers struggle to find talent with both the technical and human skills that make teams thrive. The Canyons Innovation Center is designed to close that gap—connecting students to authentic work and professional mentors that translate into real opportunity. This is not a traditional school. It is a profession-based learning environment where students learn by doing: collaborating, problem-solving, and building the confidence that comes from producing work that matters.

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!
