Granite Board hears strategic‑plan update; Beehive Elementary credited for gains after BOOST supports
Summary
District officials told the board the March focus in the strategic plan is raising ELA and math proficiency, increasing regular attenders by 10%, and retaining 85% of teachers; Beehive Elementary moved off a springboard designation after BOOST supports including a full‑time assistant principal and an instructional coach.
The Granite School District Board of Education received an update on the district strategic plan on March 3, with Dr. Joan Bramble reporting the district’s March priorities: improving ELA and math proficiency, increasing regular attenders by 10%, and retaining 85% of teachers.
Principal KariLee Pate described local BOOST supports at Beehive Elementary, saying the school was recognized in the top five for high proficiency and is no longer listed for a springboard designation after adding a full‑time assistant principal and using an instructional coach to improve teacher practice and build capacity. The presentation attributed those staffing changes with allowing principals to be in classrooms more often and strengthening discipline and community relationships.
Board members did not move to take action; the update was presented as information and to guide next steps in implementation. The briefing signaled goals and metrics district leaders will use to measure progress in the coming months.
