==History==
Granada Hills High School is a comprehensive public high school, founded in 1960 as part of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD). In 1994, the school opened a LAUSD magnet school with emphasis in math, science and technology in conjunction with the California State University at Northridge. In 2003, the school was awarded charter status which granted it fiscal and instructional autonomy in order to improve student academic performance.
Granada Hills Charter made history when almost all of its employees – teachers, classified staff and administrators – along with over 2,000 parents, signed its charter petition for independence from Los Angeles Unified. As a fiscally independent conversion charter school, Granada Hills Charter has a current student enrollment of over 4,300 and an annual student wait list of approximately 2,000. The School's student body is considered one of the most diverse, with more than 40 languages other than English spoken at home and over 60 nationalities represented. As a 501c3 non-profit benefit corporation, the School’s Governing Board is the legal entity overseeing all school policy and its $35 million operating budget.
In spring, 2011, the school attempted to gain control of a newly built public high school, claiming that the school's charter status was responsible for the school's success. However, after a community vote, Granada was not given the opportunity to control the school and the new Valley Region High School is a performing arts magnet.
