We are the proud families, community members, and supporters of Eastwood Elementary School. Eastwood isn’t just a school— it is a community of learners, where every child is known and supported. Our students excel academically, thanks to dedicated teachers, a strong Gold STEM program, and a culture that encourages curiosity and achievement.

Despite the 2017 Bond promising to rebuild Eastwood, Granite School District now proposes the closure of the school, to be voted on this December 2025. Closing this school would break trust with families, disrupt hundreds of students, and erase decades of community investment. 

Eastwood serves as a gateway school for students across the Salt Lake Valley, fostering innovation, leadership, and academic excellence. We call on Granite School District to honor its commitment and keep Eastwood Elementary open for future generations. 

Sign this petition to stand with families, teachers, and students— Eastwood deserves to thrive, not close.
