As we head into April next month, we start talking about spring testing and the M-STEP that our upper elementary students take. We are requesting any donations for snacks, gum, mints, and hard candy which are all incredibly helpful to students while taking these assessments. If you are able to help, please sign up to bring in one of these items:

When classrooms are comfortable, students can focus, engage, and truly thrive. Our elementary schools need critical heating upgrades to ensure a consistent learning environment year-round. The proposed Sinking Fund would provide the necessary resources to make these vital improvements a reality.

GPS wishes everyone a safe & enjoyable Spring Break (March 24-28, 2025)! See you on Monday, March 31st!
🌟 A Huge Thank You! 🌟
GPS is beyond grateful for the Greenville Rotary Club, Greenville Lions Club, Greenville Youth Advisory Council (GYAC), and Eightcap, Inc. for their incredible efforts in making spring break food boxes a reality for over 40 GPS families in need. Their time, energy, and dedication to raising funds, purchasing food, and packaging the food boxes make a tremendous impact.
💜💛 Thank you for being such a vital part of our community. 💜💛
The GPS Sinking Fund proposal will not raise your current tax rate. Our debt millage rate is 4.7 mills, but it is scheduled to drop to 3.2 mills this summer. This proposal asks for 1.5 mills, to maintain the 4.7 mills total rate, allowing us to keep our schools safe and equipped with the resources needed while remaining financially stable. Additionally, because the district will not pay interest costs, every dollar will go directly toward benefiting students.
