About Granite City Community Unit School District 9

Granite City Community Unit School District 9 currently lists Frohardt, Maryville, Mitchell, and Wilson as K–6 schools and Grigsby and Prather as prekindergarten-through-sixth-grade schools. Students then converge at Coolidge Junior High for grades 7–8 and Granite City High School for grades 9–12. This longer elementary model replaced the earlier grade-center arrangement.

Some older district pages still carry labels from the former grade-center structure. Current registration should rely on the active school listing and bell schedule, which show the K–6 and PK–6 model; the specific legacy labels are retained in the research audit as a maintenance warning.

Lake Educational Support Services Center serves a specialized function outside the ordinary neighborhood sequence. The operating route is several address-based elementary campuses followed by one junior high and one comprehensive high school.
