About Me

Hey there, my name is Mr. Bolton! This is my eighth year teaching math at Woods Cross High School. I grew up in Washington State where I attended the University of Washington and received undergraduate degrees in both Mathematics and Fine Art. I moved to Utah in 2013 to take advantage of the great outdoor opportunities in the area. I attended graduate school at the University of Utah where I received an MS in Mathematics focused in teaching. If you want to read my graduate thesis, you can find it at this link. When I am not teaching math, you might be able to find me around Utah rock climbing, mountain/gravel biking, backcountry skiing or trail running. Below are some photos of me not teaching math.

Canvas Navigation For Students

The menu on the left side of each WXHS student's Canvas screen will allow quick access to the different course sections.

The "Modules" page will have links to each class periods schedules, blank copies of handouts, filled out copies of notes, assignments and more. If you do not know where to look, check that page.
