With winter on the horizon, here is a reminder of GHS’s school closing procedures.
GHS uses WMUR News 9 as the designated location where school closings due to weather will be posted. These closings are listed online at www.wmur.com. Once you go to their website, click on the tab for closings, and you will see Granite Hill School listed. Granite Hill School DOES NOT do a phone message or email to families when school is canceled.
If your student’s district closes due to weather, but GHS is still open, transportation will not be provided and your student is not expected to come in. If your student’s district has a 2 hour delay, transportation will pick your student up after the 2 hour delay.
Welcome to November
As we set the clocks back and the seasons are changing, there are changes happening at GHS too. Teachers worked on report cards last week and families should see first quarter report cards soon. Students continue in the same classes for the second quarter. For the second quarter the GHS community is excited to welcome Fatou on board. She will be teaching math. With holidays coming up we would like to remind everyone to keep an eye on the school calendar. In terms of scheduled days off students need to follow the calendar of GHS and NOT their home district.
Fall Update
Teachers have been working hard to prepare progress reports. Families can expect to see these in the next week.
We are now one month into the school year. Students have settled into the routine of their class. This year, we have also implemented school wide fun Friday’s. This occurs on the last Friday of the month. This is a day taken to work on SEL skills through various activities including the ropes course elements and field games.
Welcome Back
We are excited to start the new school year. Please see the attached newsletter for information about the start of the school year.
End of ESY
Thank you to everyone who helped make ESY a great summer experience for our students. Students who participated in ESY will now have over 2 weeks off before the new school year begins. We are excited for the 2024-2025 academic year. Staff are working hard to prepare for the new school year. We are excited to get students back in the building on Monday August 26, 2024. Our full school calendar can be found under here. Please contact the school if you have any questions or concerns about the upcoming school year. We look forward to another great year at Granite Hill.
