Canyons Announces Dates, Times of SALTA Testing

The window for applying to test into Canyons School District’s SALTA magnet program for advanced learners opens early this year.

Students in kindergarten through the seventh grade can apply online starting Monday, Sept. 11, through midnight on Wednesday, Oct. 4.  No late applications will be accepted.

SALTA – Supporting Advanced Learners Toward Achievement – serves students who demonstrate significantly high cognitive and academic abilities in comparison to peers. Due to the time-intensive and rigorous nature of the process for determining a student’s fit for the program, parents are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the testing requirements well before completing an application.

Testing will take place in October and November and is a two-day commitment. Results will be distributed in January.  

Applicants may choose between one of two possible dates per testing block:

  • Testing Block A: Friday, Oct. 13 (after school) and Saturday, Oct. 14 at 9 a.m.
  • Testing Block B: Friday, Oct. 27 (after school) and Saturday, Oct, 28 at 9 a.m.

Elementary school applicants may choose from one of eight testing locations, and middle schoolers are directed to either Midvale or Mount Jordan for testing.

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!
