It’s better to give than to receive. Kindergarten students at Layton Elementary experienced the magic of the season with an early holiday surprise. A youth group from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints brought joy and smiles by gifting each child an early Christmas present. This heartwarming “Sub for Santa” event is quickly becoming a cherished tradition for the group of 12- to 18-year-olds. “It wasn’t us paying for everything; the kids brought their own money,” said Youth Leader Mark Baer. “You look around and see these youth engaging with the young kids, and it’s really fun.” Each student unwrapped gifts of Play-Doh, books, hats and gloves, while goodie bags filled with small toys added even more festive cheer. Although youth leaders considered trying new traditions—like ice skating—they quickly realized how much this event means to everyone involved. Their goal, keep spreading the spirit of giving and holiday magic for years to come.

Sunset Junior High’s Dollar Wars week was a HUGE success, raising $16,568.24 for various causes such as Sub for Santa Teen Center and other needs as identified by the school's Counseling Center. From Lottery Day to Shave It or Save It, students got creative and competitive, making every day a fun challenge. Highlights included Doubles Day, where donations were worth double points, and Golden Ticket Day, where $1 = 2 raffle tickets! The biggest moment? Three brave basketball players volunteered to shave their heads— and they all went through with it! The boys even joined the cheerleaders for a dance at the assembly to keep the energy high. We couldn’t be more proud of the Sunset community for raising an incredible amount in just one week!
