Greenville Public Schools is asking voters to consider a 10-year, 1.5-mill sinking fund millage proposal on Tuesday, August 6, 2024. WHAT IS A SINKING FUND? A sinking fund is a voter-approved local millage that deposits revenue into a special account to fund projects or major repairs on a "pay as you go" basis rather than borrowing through short-term notes or long-term bonds. If approved by voters, this proposal would enhance our schools' safety, comfort, and functionality for the benefit of the thousands of students, staff, and community members who use them daily by allowing GPS to address school security improvements, infrastructure replacement & updates, and technology & transportation replacements.

Introducing our 2024 Greenville Middle School Support Staff of the Year, Krista Wood! Krista was born and raised in Greenville. She and her husband Ben have two children who both attend GHS. They enjoy spending time together as a family, and go to the UP to camp on Keweenaw Bay every summer. Krista started at GPS working with preschoolers and elementary students, so watching those kids grow into their teens and turn into big kids has been the highlight of her career! We asked Krista what she would do if she found a penguin walking around the school building. She answered: "I've always said that someday, I would write a book with all the funny, crazy, off the wall conversations, requests, or events that have taken place over the years as a school secretary. I would certainly add this scenario into my book, as nothing surprises me at the Middle School." 🐧

Introducing our 2024 Greenville Middle School Teacher of the Year, Kristin Mier! Kristin has been married to her husband Casey for 15 years and has two children, Eleanor and Sawyer. Kristin is in her fourteenth year of teaching, and taught at Baldwin Heights, Lincoln Heights, and Walnut Hills before she landed at GMS teaching 6th grade language arts. She co-advises the student council and NJHS, facilitates the EmpowHer program for 6th grade girls, and created the Jacket Market event for budding entrepreneurs. Kristin has had many highlights in her career at GPS. Seeing students she taught as kindergarteners and again as sixth graders is a unique privilege in her eyes. She was honored to be the first western teacher in the Chinese Immersion program at Walnut Hills. Kristin is immensely grateful for all of the colleagues-turned-friends she's made over the years, as they understand exactly what it's like to juggle the struggles, victories, and life moments that happen as a teacher. We would never force Kristin to sing karaoke, but if we did, this would be her reply: "If I was singing karaoke, it would definitely be forced - as singing is not a talent I possess. However, I'm fairly confident I'd be "all in" for a Shania Twain song, likely "That Don't Impress Me Much," or a 90s country song of some sort. I would select one of these because I grew up on them, and know them by heart. And who doesn't love Shania?"
