I love Paradigm. My children have never been happier, and have found a love of learning that was missing in their previous education!
Julia H.

I went to Paradigm all through high school. Best experience ever. Not only did it help me focus on my strengths, but it also prepared me for college with its challenging curriculum that makes you think outside the box. The mentors there care about each of their students individually, and want nothing more than the students’ success.
Jennifer L.

XR Technology

In Fall 2019, Paradigm Schools became the first public school in the state of Utah to offer virtual and augmented reality technology to scholars. Headset devices are used to enhance learning opportunities for our scholars, allowing them to explore virtual places around the world, on another planet, or during a completely different time period. Whether it’s visiting the surface of Mars or exploring the Pyramids of Giza, this is a completely immersive learning experience.

Dear Parents,
Due to weather and road conditions, in-person school is suspended today. If your scholar had an Oral exam scheduled for today, that exam will be held over Zoom. Seminar mentors will email out Zoom links accordingly. If there are problems in connecting today over Zoom, Oral exams will be rescheduled for another time. But, it is our hope that we hold to the exam schedule today as much as possible.

We apologize for any inconvenience. The office will be closed today but you may still email any questions or concerns to office@paradigmschools.org

Please be safe out there.

Thank you.

What a cool experience! ✨ This is Mrs. McCoy. I was chosen to participate in an experience called Educators at Sea in San Diego California last month. I was was joined with 5 other educators and 5 wives of Navy pilots. I flew in an Osprey helicopter to the Naval aircraft carrier the USS Abraham Lincoln. Flying in a helicopter was quite the exhilarating experience. The back of the helicopter was open the whole time but there was no wind blowing through the cabin. We flew high above the clouds and about an hour later we landed on the deck of the aircraft carrier. A Lieutenant named Emily along with 3 others were our tour guide. We spent about 36 hours touring the ship including sleeping over night. We were considered Distinguished Visitors. The flight deck was by far the most fascinating. Everyone wore a different colored shirt depending on their job. It was amazing to see the teamwork as the planes took off and landed. We got to have dinner with the Command Master Chief & the Executive Officer. They were so down to earth and answered any questions we had. The ship houses 5,000 people. They called it a miniature city. It had everything from a mini hospital to a dentist office, library, and a media room. They produce a daily newspaper, a monthly magazine, and a yearbook. Naturally I geeked out over the library and the yearbook that being my job at Paradigm. It was fascinating how they dealt with the garbage. They recycle everything. The hallways of the ship were very narrow and each doorway had an oval shaped hole that you had to step through. They had a miniature museum about their namesake Abraham Lincoln and a special section of their library that was just devoted to the former President. (Cont. in comments)

Our final #GivingTuesday post! Our boys basketball team had their first game today against Wasatch Academy in Mount Pleasant and they came out victorious! This is our first year back in a competitive athletic league since we took a hiatus over 10 years ago. It has been amazing to see the transformation in our scholar athletes this year and to see the passion and drive outside of the classroom!
✨
With your donation today, you can help support our athletics program and give our scholars the best sports experience outside of a big high school where kids can just feel like a number. At Paradigm, our scholars are able to stand out and become an impactful citizen in our ever changing world. From the bottom of our hearts, thank YOU for all of your continued support! Even if you weren’t able to make a monetary donation today, we are so grateful to have you here and following us. As much as we hope to make an impact on you as a scholar or parent, you have truly made an impact on us as a school and you have kept us going for more than 15 years! THANK YOU! ❤️🤍💙 #paradigmpatriots #paradigmschools #paradigmgivesback #paradigmathletics #paradigmbasketball #ussa #utahschoolsportsassociation #win #basketball #utahschools #utahcharterschools

It’s #GivingTuesday! We would like to highlight some of the service projects that our scholars have been doing this month to celebrate!
✨
This is Jack. Jack is a heart patient and had multiple open heart surgeries when he was younger. The Ronald McDonald House was there for his family, so he asked his Kedge class to help put together activity kits for the siblings at RMH.
What a great idea and we love that Mrs. McCoy’s kedge class put forth the time and effort in this project for good.
✨
Stay tuned for more acts of service today! Don’t forget to visit www.paradigmschools.org/donate/ to give back to our school and support our amazing scholars and mentors who are working hard to make our world a better place! #paradigmschools #paradigmpatriots #paradigmgivesback #service #giveback #ronaldmcdonaldhouse #nonprofit #utahschools #utahcharterschools

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 A HUGE congratulations to our very own @dallin.thornton for officially signing his Letter of Intent with the BYU Track and Field team as a pole vaulter! Some of you may remember, Dallin took state last year! Dallin has worked extremely hard in his academics at Paradigm with a 4.0 GPA and in the gym with Bingham High School as part of their track and field team. His scholarship potential will be evaluated at the end of the season (you can follow his IG account for updates on his PR goal of 17’3”!). We are so proud of you, Dallin! #paradigmschools #paradigmpatriots #paradigmathletes #byu #byutrackandfield #polevault #binghamhighschool #byuathletics #scholarship #utahschools #utahcharterschools

It’s time for a #givingtuesday mentor/alumni spotlight!
✨
Bethany Davis, class of 2015 and current Paradigm mentor! Ms. Davis is featured in the middle of this photo with this year’s Paradigm Dance Company. She mentors our dance and How to Paradigm classes.
✨
“Paradigm has helped me see that I can create positive change in the simplest of ways. Paradigm taught me that “changing the world” doesn’t have to be a daunting and glorious feat. Sometimes the greatest change can happen, not by changing the whole world, but by making the smallest impact on one person’s world. Coming back to Paradigm, mentoring here and helping my scholars realize their potential and worth is what helps me feel as though I’m making a positive impact on the world around me.”

Have you heard of our annual service project called #pennywars? Did you know that our small school raised over $25,000 last year in just ONE month?! We take Penny Wars very seriously and the best part is rallying around each other to support a great cause. All of our proceeds last year went to @ourrescue - you can read more about it in the South Jordan Journal! We can’t wait for this year’s Penny Wars, which begins in January. What are you going to do for #service to help raise money? #givingtuesday #paradigmschools #paradigmpatriots #paradigmgivesback #giveback #community #ourrescue #charity #utahschools #utahcharterschools
