We will be offering Open Contracts to student teachers and teacher interns as early as October for the school year.

15 Collective Efforts Collective efforts made by the Granite Board of Education and the Granite Education Association during negotiations have had a very positive influence on our ability to recruit teachers. Our salary and benefit package settlement is one of the best in the state. This fact has allowed us to be competitive with other school districts along the Wasatch Front. The $500 first year teacher signing bonus, 3% COLA, and our professional development days helped us to attract Highly Qualified and effective educators.
