Faculty meetings at the school are probably a little dif- ferent that those traditionally found at schools. The new leadership team conducts regular business through memos and to each teacher and saves faculty meetings for practical inservice lessons for the teachers. And a new schoolwide enrichment program will offer art, music, drama and dance classes to students before and after school, not only to offer assistance to those who are considered "latchkey kids," but also to expand the programs available to those who are interested in personal development. With Meadow operating on an extended day program, students who attend school on the first session can stay after school and ride the second bus home; those who would have come later in the day will come on the earlier bus to participate in the arts programs before classes begin.

Another Salt Lake man was jailed on charges of theft, possession of stolen property, possession of burglary tools and evading officers after a high speed chase that led into Salt Lake County. Officers were dispatched to a residential area to investigate a possible burglary situation after a reporting party said he saw "kids" with flashlights looking into windows and opening car doors; the witness also said he saw a vehicle driving around the area. When the officer followed the vehicle and signaled for it to stop, the car accelerated instead, running several stop signs and reaching speeds of 90 miles per hour. The vehicle entered the freeway and accelerated to 100 mph, finally coming to a stop near the 90th South exit in Sandy when Utah Highway Patrol troopers set spikes across the road. Two Lehi officers pursued the suspect when he started to flee on foot; the man complied with their orders to stop and was taken into custody without further incident. At the police station, the man admitted to coming to Lehi with the intent to burglarize vehicles. Sandy Police officers captured other suspects in connection with the same incident.
