Dear Granite Families,
We truly have the most amazing community! Thank you for all the kindness and love you showed our unparalleled faculty this week during Teacher Appreciation. I know each teacher is so grateful for the outpouring of care given this week. Thank you!
In an unexpected but thoughtfully considered vote, the Board of Education voted to table consolidation of Granite and Quail Hollow. I appreciate the thorough consideration of our community’s feedback by the Board throughout this process. At this time, Granite is anticipated to remain open through the 27-28 school year.
As always, thank you for supporting our wonderful school community. Please reach out anytime with questions or feedback.
Warmly,
Elcena Saline
