History
The district was created in 1904 with 4,258 students.[3] Its name and original boundaries were taken from the Granite Stake of the LDS Church, which at the time spanned nearly the entire breadth of the Salt Lake Valley from Mill Creek in the east to Hunter in the west, and from roughly Sugar House in the north to Bennion in the south.[4]
In 2024, the district drew national attention after a school board member publicly and falsely accused a high school athlete of being transgender, leading to the student in question receiving so many threats that the school had to provide her with police protection.[5][6][7]
