Your 2025–26 RISE Scores Are Ready — Come See Your Growth!

Dear Students and Parents,

The 2025–26 Utah RISE scores are now available, and we are excited for students and families to take a look!

RISE scores tell an important story. They show what students have learned, where they have grown, and what strengths they can continue building on next year. These scores are not just numbers — they are a snapshot of effort, progress, and learning.

Students, this is your chance to ask:

What did I learn?
Where did I grow?
What can I be proud of?
What is my next goal?

Parents, we encourage you to review your student’s scores together and celebrate the hard work that happened throughout the school year.

To view scores in myDSD:

Log in to myDSD → Academics → Reports → Testing → RISE Results

At Central Davis Junior High, learning is CENTRAL to success, and we are proud of the effort our students put into learning every day.

Take a few minutes to log in, review the scores, and celebrate growth!

Thank you for supporting your student’s learning,
Evette Ashton
Assistant Principal

FBLA recently had the opportunity to hear from guest speaker Kathy Carver, who shared valuable tips on presentation skills with our members.

She encouraged students to “be you” and focus on authenticity when presenting. One of the key strategies she taught was the 3x3+1 rule: practice your presentation three days before, three times a day, and then once more on the day of your presentation.

We appreciate Kathy taking the time to work with our students and help them build confidence in their speaking skills!

Mrs. Frank’s class had a pretty special moment recently as they released their butterflies 🦋

After watching them grow and change, students were able to see the full life cycle come to life right in their classroom. There’s something pretty amazing about seeing all that hard work and patience pay off as the butterflies take their first flight.

It was such a fun, hands-on learning experience and a great reminder of how cool science can be.

We understood the assignment last week 😎

Staff and students showed up in full Adam Sandler style, and it did not disappoint. From oversized t-shirts and basketball shorts to hoodies and comfy fits, the halls were full of laid-back vibes and lots of laughs.

It was such a fun way to bring some energy into the week and see everyone get creative (and extra comfortable).

Thanks to everyone who participated and made it such a fun day to remember!
