Imagine walking into a library that invites you to explore, create, and learn.

That's exactly what students will experience at Granite Mountain Upper Elementary School thanks to the recent library transformation funded in part by the PUSDEF School Enhancement Grant Program.

The updated space provides comfortable seating, collaborative learning areas, and an atmosphere that encourages students to pick up a book, ask questions, and discover something new.

Partnerships like this help ensure our schools remain places where students thrive.

The Annual Rising Stars Awards Banquet is always one of the most meaningful nights of the year. It is a simple reminder of why this PUSDEF program matters. When you take the time to recognize both the student and the educator, you see the real impact happening inside our schools.

We had an incredible time celebrating a milestone moment with the PUSD Education Foundation!

Through our Charitable Giving Foundation, we proudly presented a $5,000 grant to help ensure students have access to essential school supplies, clothing, and food bags—support that makes a real difference for families facing financial challenges.

A huge thank‑you to the Prescott Unified School District Education Foundation and Executive Director Paul Kirchgraber for the incredible work they do each day. 💙✨

Local support makes a difference! Sprouts Farmers Market in Prescott donated shopping bags for teachers when using the PUSDEF Teacher’s Supply Closet when picking up free essential supplies for their students and classrooms.
