Foundation Fun Day
Our events prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.
Hawk Hustle
The Hawk Hustle is the Pleasant Grove Education Foundation’s annual Field Day designed exclusively for our Kindergarten through 5th grade students. Held every spring, this high-energy, action-packed day gives our youngest Hawks a chance to get moving, show their school spirit, and have a blast with their classmates.
But the Hawk Hustle is more than just a day of outdoor fun—it is our largest fundraiser of the year! Every sponsorship, gear purchase, and donation goes right back into Pleasant Grove ISD. The funds raised directly power innovative classroom grants, purchase cutting-edge educational technology, and provide essential resources that empower our teachers and help our students soar.
Thank you to our amazing families and local community partners who sponsor, volunteer, and cheer on our students. Together, we are making a lasting impact on education in Hawk Nation!

If you hear the unmistakable sound of cowbells, shakers, and cheers echoing through the halls of Pleasant Grove ISD, you know it’s time for the Great Grant Giveaway!
The Great Grant Giveaway is one of the most exciting days of the year for the Pleasant Grove ISD Education Foundation.

These innovative teacher grants are fully funded by the generosity of our Hawk community through annual campaigns, staff contributions, and fundraisers. By delivering these funds directly to our campuses, we turn brilliant educational ideas into reality—funding everything from cutting-edge STEM and robotics equipment to specialized literacy tools, flexible seating, and campus-wide learning enhancements.
The Great Grant Giveaway is the ultimate celebration of teaching excellence, showing our educators and students that Hawk Nation is standing right behind them!

Academic Banquet
The Academic Banquet is one of the Pleasant Grove ISD Education Foundation’s most cherished traditions. Held each spring, this prestigious evening is dedicated to honoring the hard work, dedication, and outstanding achievements of Pleasant Grove High School’s top graduating seniors.
But this event is about more than just grades—it’s about the community of support that makes academic success possible. At the banquet, each honored senior is given the unique opportunity to invite and publicly recognize one PGISD educator who made a profound, lasting impact on their educational journey. From elementary teachers who first sparked a love of learning to high school mentors who guided them through advanced coursework, these emotional tributes showcase the incredible bond between Hawk students and teachers.
The Academic Banquet brings together students, families, educators, board members, and community sponsors for an evening of reflection, gratitude, and looking toward the future. By celebrating our top scholars and the educators who inspired them, the Education Foundation reaffirms its commitment to fostering a culture of excellence throughout Hawk Nation.
