💛 Thank You Thursday! 💛

Today, we celebrated Whittier Elementary School kindergarten teacher Melanie Willey: a teacher who shows up, steps up and always puts her students first.

Principal Briana Cauley says Melanie is someone the school can consistently count on—whether she’s supporting her grade level, taking on new leadership or simply jumping in wherever she’s needed.

And we saw that dedication firsthand. Even in the middle of her Thank You Thursday surprise, Melanie kept the lesson going, holding up a yellow bag and having her students repeat the color. 💛

Thank you, Melanie, for being someone your students and your school community can count on. Whittier is lucky to have you!

A DOOR IS ONLY HELPFUL IF YOU CAN GET THROUGH IT. 🚪

Our Access to Opportunity pillar is all about making sure Granite students have a way forward.

Transportation. Scholarships. Possibilities.

This month, we’re talking about the ways GEF helps students get from “maybe someday” to “let’s go.”

Crestview Elementary 3rd graders had a special guest turning the pages today! First Lady Abby joined students at Granite Credit Union for a reading adventure as part of the Governor and First Lady’s Utah Reads Read-A-Thon!

There were stories, smiles, and a pretty great ending: every student got to take home a brand-new book from Marissa's Bookstore! 📖

Supporting Granite students comes in many different forms: donating, building student weekend kits, volunteering, even jamming out to Taylor Swift.

For this THANK YOU THURSDAY, we're celebrating Alex Lopes, who wears a lot of hats at Copper Hills Elementary and handles every single one with talent, dedication, kindness, and reliability.

"He is kind and reliable to all and does an excellent job in all he is responsible for at Copper Hills....and plenty of things he just jumps in to help with too!" says Principal Amy Neal

Now that's a whole lot of reasons to say THANK YOU, Alex! 💙

Shop-A-Thon was a day of full carts, fresh haircuts, new coats, backpacks and toys and a whole lot of happy faces - about 400 to be exact 😁

Thanks to an incredible crew of community partners, students got to shop at Kohl’s while also receiving vision and dental screenings, haircuts and plenty of extras to make the day feel special.

We couldn’t do it without the people who show up for Granite students:

Capital One • Kohl's • Marine Toys for Tots Foundation • Tackle Hunger • Foundation 4Life • Salt Lake Community College Dental Program • HB Boys, LC - A Franchisee Management Company • Sizzling Platter, LLC • Care Cuts • Paul Mitchell Schools • The Best Seat in the House • U.S. Novelty & Party • School District Nurses • Honeydew Sleep • Operation Warm

Thank you for turning a shopping trip into a day these students will remember. 💙

Now that's a LOT of granola bars 😳

But the number that matters most?

200,000+ moments when a student had something to eat when they needed it.

Help us keep filling snack and Student Weekend Kits for students who need them.

These are the words that remind us why great educators matter.

This year's nominations are filled with stories of educators who believed a little harder, encouraged a little louder, and made a lasting difference.

And there’s still time to add one more story.

Today is the FINAL DAY to nominate an educator for the 40th Annual EXCEL Educator Awards.

We’ve taken THANK YOU THURSDAY to classrooms. Lunchrooms. Playgrounds. Even a soccer tournament.

But today? We went digital. 📱For the first time ever, THANK YOU THURSDAY happened via FaceTime!

Honestly, it couldn’t be more fitting for Cottonwood High School math teacher Sierra Argyle because when her school needs her, Sierra answers the call. Anywhere. Anytime.

Principal Justin Pitcher says Sierra has been instrumental in implementing RTI Time, leading the math department and creating high-quality engagement with faculty and staff.

Thank you, Sierra, for always answering the call!
