| Dear Grizzly Families,
Our teachers spent the day grading, planning, organizing, and working hard in their classrooms today. Please enjoy your 4-day weekend and we will see you Tuesday! If you know of anyone in your community who has a kindergartener next year, please spread the word and have them call the school to start the registration process.
New employee – We are very excited to announce that Kelly Frye has joined Granite’s staff as an instructional assistant. As many of you know, our 4th and 5th grade classes are very large this year. With the addition of Kelly, we are able to have two instructional aides in the morning (one for each grade) and Kelly in the afternoon. Kelly divides her time among the grades and supports with many things including writing and 1:1 support for students.
TOY nominations – It’s time for teacher of the year nominations! All nomination forms will be collected virtually this year. Please access this nomination form to celebrate your students’ amazing teachers! Nominations must be made by 5pm on Feb. 6.
Library Book Information – Did you know that you can access our school’s library catalogue from the school website [file://///granite.canyonsdistrict.org%3f]granite.canyonsdistrict.org? Under the “Student/Family Resources” Tab, you will find the “Granite Library Catalogue” link. All Granite Grizzlies also have access to SORA – an online ebook library that students can access from home or on an internet-connected device.
