Holiday Happenings (formerly called Dinner at the Park)
For the past several years our school has worked with a local charity called Best Seat in the House to help provide families in our school community with food and a gift for children. This year’s holiday event, which will now be called, Granite Park Holiday Happenings will take place on December 20th from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm.
We will have around 300 meals and gifts for families. Please come and join us on this night as we prepare for the holidays.
Tardy Policy
We have seen an increase in the number of tardies we have each day. Here is a reminder of our tardy process and expectations for students:
We require all students to be on time to every class. If a student is late, they will face the following consequences:
1st Tardy – Warning
2nd Tardy – Lunch Detention
3rd Tardy – 1 hour After School Detention
4th Tardy – 2 hour After School Detention
5th Tardy – Overnight suspension (parents required to meet with school)
Please talk to your student about the importance of being on time to class.
