Mission: Haiku: Davis students become special agents for project

CLEARFIELD — The “Mission: Impossible” theme song can be heard as the voice of Special Agent 13 comes over the intercom into a classroom at South Clearfield Elementary informing students that their class has been chosen to lead a secret mission.

“Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is top secret,” said the special agent, who is really Assistant Principal Mike Page.

He explained that there were confidential instructions hidden in the classroom.
