Eastwood Elementary has earned the distinction of being a National PTA School of Excellence – a recognition that celebrates exceptional PTA partnerships.

The award extols Eastwood for being among a handful of U.S. schools “leading the nation in family-school partnerships” and “engaging families in continuous school improvement.”

In a letter to Eastwood principal Naomi Hopf, Utah Governor Gary Herbert congratulated faculty, staff, students, and parents for their work:

“This honor is a tremendous recognition of the wonderful work you do to provide a quality education for our children.”

Only 124 schools throughout the nation received the recognition. Eastwood was among three Utah schools to receive the award.
