Megan has been a Social Worker at Provo Peak Elementary for several years and has dedicated her career to serving the school’s students, families, and staff. Her unwavering commitment to the well-being and success of the students has been a source of inspiration to anyone who’s met her. Her nomination came from Provo Peaks Teacher Natalie Jacobus: “We’re so grateful that you’re here at our school. You keep the school safe and keep the school running. I honestly don’t know where our kids would be without you– they feel safe with you and see that they can meet any of their needs from you– you change their lives.” For those reasons and many more, we congratulate Megan and proudly present her with the Provo Way Award.
