Our school will be open on August 4th from 1:00 pm – 7:00 pm to help with your registration needs if you would like to come to the school for help. Registration is all online, and Granite Park is here to help support your technology needs — Chromebooks will be available. We will be able to help you in the following ways:

You can also access the Granite School Community App, which allows you to complete the registration process, check grades and attendance, and contact school staff, in addition to much more.

El registro es completamente en línea, y Granite Park está aquí para apoyar tus necesidades de tecnología — habrá Chromebooks disponibles. Podremos ayudarte de las siguientes maneras:
