Dear Parents and Students:
NEW MASK MANDATE:
As per the Salt Lake County issuance, there will be a mask mandate for the next 30 days. This means that students and staff will be required to wear masks while at school. This will begin on Monday, January 10th. Please read the email sent from Granite School District for more information. Included in that email will be a link to RED CAP. Please go to that link and get your students registered in the event that we have to do COVID Test to Stay. Hopefully we won’t have to, but please register in RED CAP just in case. Please be sure to bring a mask with you Monday as we currently have very low supply of masks to hand out.
