  Go to SoDa RoW this Halloween Weekend and enjoy a hot espresso or a nice hot chocolate or if you are in the mood for something cold and sweet you could grab some gelato or sorbet, (there are over 36 flavors to choose from). Or if you are really hungry you can get some pesto pizza, panini, or some other Italian treats, I am sure I will be there soon and that San Gelato Café might become one of my local favorites very soon… . San Gelato Café will be open 7 days a week and will be open from 8am to 9pm… |

S.A.F.E. : Sidewalks from Sunstone to Daybreak |

Here in Daybreak, we love our community: we love our fantastic green spaces, our excellent schools, and our wonderful friends and neighbors. Just to the west of us, there are some neighbors whose children go to Daybreak schools, who have friends among Daybreak residents, who enjoy the beauty of Daybreak trails and parks, but who must trudge through mud and weeds on a busy road to do so. The residents of Sunstone are concerned that someone is going to be hurt making their way to or from Daybreak. .                Sunstone is a small neighborhood of about 1200 people about a half mile from Daybreak down 11800 South. If you’ve been out that way, you know how fast the cars speed down 11800 South, much faster than the posted speed limit. It’s a narrow two-lane road with very narrow shoulders—sometimes as little as 3 feet stretch between a pedestrian and speeding car. I wouldn’t want to walk along that road, nor especially send my kids down it. While children from Sunstone are currently bused to Daybreak Elementary, there are children who attend the new Early Light Academy that are walking along that 11800 South to school. And depending on how the boundaries are decided, there may be teens from Daybreak walking to the new high school down that stretch of road. . CLICK READ MORE TO SEE REST OF THE ARTICLE |

  Finally, Daybreak will have its very own child care center, and like pretty much everything else in Daybreak—it will have its own special twist. Daybreak Children's Academy (DCA) will be a place where the whole family can get involved in art and music. The core program is a “daycare alternative†for working parents who need child care, but who don’t want to send their child to a “babysitting†type center. At DCA children as young as 6 months to 3 years will receive age-appropriate music prep courses designed to prepare them for Suzuki violin instruction and piano lessons by the time they turn four at the center. Toddlers on up will also be receiving professional art instruction, art history lessons, and language instruction (with the option of enrolling your child in a Spanish immersion class, where a native speaking instructor will speak only Spanish with the students for half of each day). All of this is included in the standard tuition and is built-in to their daily curriculum. . For more information please visit: http://daybreakacademy.com/ |

Crossing Guards FINALLY coming to local South Jordan Elementary Schools! |

   As some of you have read in the first S.A.F.E. program articles (found on the 2nd or 3rd news page)  three of the local elementary schools have been in need and have been asking the City of South Jordan for crossing guards and have been consistently denied due to funding issues. Well I have read the City budget since I am a candidate for the South Jordan City Council this year and there is plenty of room to find funding for budget for the crossing guards and I expressed this with the current South Jordan City Manager, whom I suspect is more concerned with infrastructure growth and building the tax base than he is of the safety of the children of South Jordan (yes I told him that directly). Now I do think that the growth of infrastructure and building the tax base of South Jordan are extremely important to the future of South Jordan, however I believe that safety for all of the residents of the City of South Jordan (not just the children) is the more important… .     So since the S.A.F.E. program was published the City of South Jordan has scrambled and found the funding to get the needed crossing guards for Daybreak Elementary, Early Light Academy, & Eastlake Academy, so now all of the schools will have 2 crossing guards total to ensure the safety of the children of South Jordan are safe going to and leaving school every day. I just spoke to the Chief of Police of South Jordan this morning and the crossing guards should be in place in about 4 weeks! . If you’re current elected officials were doing their job this should have never been an issue!!! . Joe Ross~ |

South Jordan Schools will start recycling again Late 2009 |

    As soon as the South Jordan School District comes back from the Fall break in Jan 2009, the South Jordan School District will work on getting all the recycling bins back to all the Schools in South Jordan. In August 2007 the City of South Jordan code enforcement told the South Jordan School District that the recycling bins needed to be removed if the Schools District were not able to have fencing or an enclosures put up around the recycling bins. The School District was unable to taking what little budget it had away from the children’s educational needs to build these enclosures being requested so almost all the recycling bins were taken from the South Jordan Schools at that time. .
  I have been trying to find a resolution to fix this situation for a month or two and was actually working on getting a waiver or variance to the code for the South Jordan School District. However last week a friend of mine who happens to be an Attorney for the City of South Jordan was able to dig up some information on the State Code of Municipality 10-9A-305 sub 4a, which exempts the all public Schools from the code enclosure requirement. .
Anyways thanks to everyone who gave their support in helping me and my efforts to get the South Jordan School District Recycling Program back to our Schools!  . And a BIG thank you to Mr. Aaron Osmond and Kennecott Land for dontating the funds to pay for the recycling bin at Daybreak Elementary for the 2009-2010 school year!  . Happy Holidays Joe Ross~ |
