Canyons School District To Unveil Community-Inspired Logo

Cottonwood Heights, Utah, March 16, 2009 — The Canyons Board of Education is poised to unveil its official logo, inspired by the community of Utah’s newest school district.

Canyons School District last fall invited the community to submit design concepts to help create the official district logo. The district received 432 submissions from preschoolers, students and adults. The Board last month honored and awarded prizes to six finalists, and forwarded their work to designers as inspiration for the official district logo.

The new logo will be unveiled with the help of the finalists, who will receive additional honors from the Board.
