We Believe:

Parents, students, teachers and the community have a shared responsibility and accountability in a student’s educational and social development.

All students can learn and therefore, children should be guaranteed to receive an appropriate educational foundation that meets their individual needs.

Every child has the right to learn in a safe, supportive environment.

In the worth of the individual.

Granum School is an essential asset to our community and is a major resource for enhancing the well-being of all citizens of Granum.

People learn:

• In a secure and safe environment
• Through interactions with others and their environments
• When they take ownership
• The parts when they understand the whole
• By connecting new information to old Through trial and error
• When subject matter is meaningful
• Through practice using a multi-sensory approach
• By modeling others learning strategies
• At their own speed
• Through feedback By doing
  

Respect

We expect that all interactions with students, parents, staff, community and all others who come in contact with us, and with each other, will be characterized by orderliness, fairness, understanding, dignity, honesty and compassion.

Excellence

To maximize student and staff   potential.

Leadership

To act as shapers of what ought to be rather than servants of   what is.

Citizenship

We value the development and nurturing of all skills necessary to qualify our students, staff and school as valued members of the community.

Judeo Christian Principles

Small schools such as ours cannot survive without the full support of the community.

Granum has been blessed with the support it has received from individual members, businesses, and community service organizations.  Their support has been expressed in several ways.  Many community members have come into the school to share their experiences and expertise.

Volunteers are always needed both in the school and for outside activities such as sports teams.  If you wish to volunteer in one way or another please telephone the school and leave your name.  Our volunteers are coordinated through School Council. Coaches and Options volunteers need to complete a police check.

Parents are welcome ANYTIME to help in the classrooms, serve hot lunches or hot dogs, or serve on School Council or any of it’s various committees.  Please contact the school, or a member of School Council.  YOU make the biggest difference in your child’s education!
