🍎🏈 A well-deserved surprise for an outstanding teacher!

This morning, we surprised A.D. Henderson University School social studies teacher Ella Pillitteri with a $1,000 classroom supply grant as part of Extra Yard for Teachers Week!

Presented in front of her students, the grant recognizes Mrs. Pillitteri’s commitment to inspiring curiosity, leadership and civic engagement in the classroom.

We’re proud to celebrate educators who make a difference every day and we can’t wait to recognize Mrs. Pillitteri again on the field at the Boca Raton Bowl on December 18!

🍎 It's a BIG DAY for Teachers!

Congratulations to Ms. Ella Pillitteri, Social Studies Teacher at A.D. Henderson University School & FAU High School, one of the outstanding educators we're celebrating during Extra Yard for Teachers Week.

Known for inspiring curiosity, leadership, and civic engagement in the classroom, Ms. Pillitteri goes above and beyond to help students discover their potential and understand their role in the world around them. Today, we surprised her with a $1,000 classroom supply grant in recognition of her dedication to student success and the lasting impact she has on her school community.

We're also excited to honor Ms. Pillitteri on the field during the 2026 ESPN Boca Raton Bowl on December 18!

As ESPN and the college football community shine a spotlight on educators across America, we're reminded that every great achievement starts with a teacher who believed in us.

Today we celebrate Ms. Ella Pillitteri. Today we celebrate ALL teachers.

Thank you for inspiring, encouraging, and changing lives every day!
