Greenville Schools Levy...
Let’s Build It! The
Future is Our Kids
“Everyone Will Benefit”
Greenville School’s proposed building plans include provisions
impacting the entire student population in grades kindergarten through
twelfth grade. The passage of the issue on the November 8th
ballot will provide the funding needed to construct a new K-8 facility
and renovate Greenville High School. This facility plan will
enable the district to house students in two locations rather than the
existing five sites.
Students and teachers in both buildings will benefit from the facility
update. Educational and environmental conditions will be improved
for students in grades K-8 as they move from the older, restrictive
facilities of the Junior High (1924), South (1911), East (1950), and
Woodland (1956) to a new K-8 building. Up-to-date technology,
science labs, and flexible learning spaces will be available in the
fully furnished building enabling more than ever before the sharing of
resources. Much needed, will be the independent accessibility the
district’s handicapped population will have to all areas of the
school. The High School students and teachers will experience the
benefits of the facility upgrade as well. Plans include in part
refurbished science labs, increased technology capabilities, HVAC, new
windows, expanded cafeteria size, and other interior/exterior refining.
Providing a safe and secure environment for our students is a
priority. Security features not available due to the restrictive
nature of the older buildings will be included in both the K-8 and High
School facilities. Additionally, students with health issues will
be provided with a cleaner, climate-controlled environment for learning
with the addition of new HVAC systems.
