Schooling on every level

Jessica Tanner

Leader Assistant Editor

This year Eusebio and Ana Granda of Tremonton will have six of their seven children in every level of schooling in the Box Elder School District. Education has become a very important aspect for the Granda family as Ana has spent her time dedicated to her children and providing a better life for them. She was recently selected as the 2012 Parent of the Year through the Utah Head Start Association.

Son Job, 17, will be a senior at Bear River High School while his brother, Giovanni, 16, will join him at the school as a sophomore. Mario, 14, will attend Bear River Middle School as an eighth grader. Right behind him is brother, Erick, 12, who will be in seventh grade at the Alice C. Harris Intermediate School. Luis, 6, will attend North Park Elementary as a first grader. The youngest, Katherine, 5, just graduated from the Migrant Head Start School in August and will now attend kindergarten.
