Mr. Brady, or Coach Brady as he is better known, is a teacher at Tooele high school as well as the head football coach. He teaches the special needs classes at the school but is far more than a teacher to these students. It is clearly obvious that Coach Brady cares about his students. Not […]

Wendy is a teacher at Primary Children’s Middle School and one that deserves to be recognized for her outstanding abilities and for going above and beyond as a role of teacher in her students lives.

Granger high school has received a lot of media coverage in the past year or so regarding a new top of the line football stadium and a complete remodel of the institution itself.

I am writing to nominate a former teacher of mine, Wayne Stevenson, for the KSL Teacher Feature Award.

I am nominating Mrs. Carter because of what she has done for my daughter. My daughter had a very hard teacher last year, he was constantly taking away their recesses, art time, and yelling at them. She developed severe anxiety about going to school. Last school year I ended up having to homeschool her because […]

Hi my name is Austin and I just want to tell you about my History teacher Mr. Hayes. I think he is the best teacher I have ever had. He teaches from his past experiences and not from a text book. He makes class so fun and all of the kids love him. He has […]
