Freshman: The Granite School district is a very good district. I am enrolled in a school that is part of the Granite School district and I also work as a sweeper for The Granite School district. I love the school I go to as everyone at the school including students, teachers, and the rest of the administration is all very nice and amazing. From the first day I walked into the school I felt welcomed by everyone especially my counselor who was very kind to me by letting me leave my cello there when I couldn't leave it in our band hall when she knew nothing about me. I do however wish that our classrooms used more work on paper instead of using digital devices. I also work for a school that is part of the Granite school district and it is very nice. It pays very well and i have always been treated fairly and kindly. The only thing i wish I could change is that our jobs for the day were more specific.... Read 1 review
