Granite Falls School District

Headquartered at 205 N Alder Avenue in Granite Falls, Washington, the Granite Falls School District serves as a vital educational cornerstone within the outer reaches of the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue metropolitan region. Characterized geographically as a fringe town district, this fully operational, traditional public school system manages six active schools that deliver continuous academic programming from prekindergarten through 12th grade. For the 2024–2025 school year, the district educates a total of 2,355 students across its primary and secondary campuses, maintaining an accessible community footprint supported by an active web presence at gfalls.wednet.edu.

To foster an inclusive learning environment for its student body—which encompasses 1,683 White, 369 Hispanic, 170 multiracial, 51 Asian, 35 Black, 27 American Indian, and 16 Pacific Islander students—the district maintains a comprehensive staffing infrastructure. Granite Falls employs a total workforce of approximately 505 full-time equivalent (FTE) staff members dedicated to student development and district operations. This team includes roughly 258 FTE teachers and nearly 37 FTE instructional aides, bolstered by more than 210 FTE support personnel. This balanced ratio of instructional and support staff ensures that families, students, and educational researchers find a well-resourced district structured to deliver equitable academic pathways and tailored student services.
