GISD opens nominations for GPEF Hall of Honor

Graham ISD announced Monday nominations are open for the fourth annual Graham Public Education Foundation Hall of Honor, which recognizes alumni, staff and community members who have provided meritorious service to the district and/or their profession.

GPEF is a non-profit organization which gives funding to the district outside of the budget through a grant application process and obtains money through donations and fundraising events such as Kitchen Crawl. The board for GPEF, along with members of the school district administration, review the requests and choose grants that are available to fund and will make an impact.

Nominations are open for the event through Thursday, July 23 in five categories. On the week of Aug. 10, GISD Superintendent Sonny Cruse will announce the new honorees and send a notification to those selected. Those participating will take part in the GPEF Hall of Honor reception before the Graham High School homecoming game.
