    The Baldwin County School District celebrated five educators who were selected as recipients of this year’s Robins Financial Credit Union GRANTED award. With a combined total of more than $6,400 awarded, these grants will go directly toward classroom supplies, innovative learning tools, and resources to benefit students across multiple grade levels.

    This year’s Baldwin County GRANTED winners are:

    • KristinGrebel,BaldwinHighSchool – $630

    • AliciaJohnson,BaldwinHighSchool – $2,500

    • ErinSmith,LakeviewAcademy – $1,308

    • JaclynMiller,LakeviewPrimary – $1,000 • LauraFranklin,MidwayHills Academy – $1,000 Each of these teachers submitted proposals through Robins Financial’s competitive GRANTED Program, which supports Georgia educators by funding creative projects and essential materials that directly impact student success.

    “We extend our deepest thanks to Robins Financial Credit Union for their continued support of public education and their investment in our teachers,” said Eric Jones, School and Community Relations Coordinator.

    Presentations of the grant awards have been taking place throughout the summer, and the final recipient, Laura Franklin of Midway Hills Academy, was honored last week.
