DId You Hear that?!
Mysterious Explosion Nearby

By Hannah Gray
Headline Editor

     At 1 AM on Saturday last week (3/18/2023), Draper residents reported hearing a large explosion. It woke people up nearby, although some remained dead asleep. Investigation is still ongoing as very little information can be found on the incident. So what caused it? Nobody knows! What we do know is that it wasn’t fallen space debris or something like that. The incident is being investigated as “‘human-caused,’” somehow…    The best source of any evidence is doorbell cameras of locals. It’s been just over a week since and officials and authorities still don’t know the cause. What we do have though is a hiker witness of finding evidence of an explosion in the area: “the vicinity of Moab Way and Manilla Drive” (up near the flight park). No one seems to be in any real danger either, though police have asked the public to steer clear of the immediate area for now. 

    “I was actually awake when it happened,” Eathan Sunberg, a Senior, mentioned in a brief interview. “I initially thought that something had fallen in my house.” 

    Ultimately, we still don’t know what caused the boom that night. It’s a mystery! Anyone with information can contact the legal authorities on the investigation at 801-840-4000. Stay tuned.

    Do you live up near the flight park?

Are CCHS Students happy?
Here Be the Report

     Corner Canyon is my second high school I've been to and it has been a more positive experience and has allowed me to grow exponentially. I wondered though, Is my experience similar to others? Are the students at Corner Canyon happy with their environment and education? 

    From an article from SiteLogicIQ they state “Researchers have found that the quality of school facilities impact student learning. Students focus better when they’re comfortable, are more likely to attend classes, and may be less likely to become ill.-Students who aren’t distracted or uncomfortable due to environmental factors are students who can remain attentive and better retain information.”

     For students to get an effective education they need to be in a good school environment. That means being happy with the staff, the educational material, and school. 

    From Hannah Donaldson, a Senior at Corner Canyon, she stated “I don’t believe my overall happiness depends on my school, but I am happy with corner canyon. We have a wide range of academic, artistic, and athletic clubs and classes. And I feel as though it is fairly easy to meet people and make new friends-It does seem like there is a fairly large portion of the school that seems small minded, but I have been lucky enough not to interact with them. So overall yes I am happy going to school at CCHS.”

     Her words for me perfectly summarize what I feel about corner canyon. The major flaws at corner canyon cannot be affected by the staff so it is easier to cut those out of the equation and simply focus on the teachers and teaching material. 
    The most important thing that a school can have is a welcoming learning environment, that leads students to excel and be able to push past limits they set for themselves. I would say corner canyon, for me, has done exactly that.
"They kind of see themselves as vehicles to change society — that these kids are going to go out and not just reflect where they came from and who they are, but change all that," he says. "And those are the most exciting schools."
