"I feel like everyone has different stories, and I think that is really nice to get to know people," Santibanez said. Transitioning into high school can be intimidating, which is why upperclassmen helped by welcoming students and offering words of wisdom. "School is what you put into it. If it's just a place that is boring and you don't want to be there, that's what it's going to be. But, if you think it's a place where you can have fun — you can meet new friends, that's also what it's going to be," said Jacob Harvey, student body president.Granite is only one of the districts across the state heading back to the classroom.
