Here are the August Updates, Events and Opportunities for Your Family and a Chance to Meet the New Superintendent, Mr. Michael Hall https://www.granvillecsd.org/article/2330652
We have openings for THREE grade 7-12 special educators for the 2025-2026 school year who are ready to build roots in our school community.
We are a small rural school in the beautiful countryside of Washington County, New York, with big heart and big opportunities.
With a new Jr/Sr High Principal leading the way that is here to stay, and a new superintendent ready to meet and greet our school community, the sky's the limit.
The best referrals come from within our community and we would appreciate assistance spreading the word wide and far for those who might consider being part of our school with one of the most competitive course catalogs and Jr/Sr High opportunities in the area.
Encourage potential teachers to also check out our neighborhood website DiscoverGranvilleNY.com to learn more about our community and what it has to offer.
We. Are. The. Golden. Horde.
Join us!
