Granite School District provides transition support, both academically and behaviorally to all incoming 6th, 7th, and 9th grade students at the Jr. Highs and High Schools by implementing a transition success course. The goal of these courses is for students to successfully transition into Jr. High and High School and to advance with all required graduation credits.
