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 Walnut Hills Elementary Support Staff of the Year, Nik Iverson! Nik loves doing anything outside and hanging with his family. He likes hunting, fishing, hiking, camping, and playing and watching sports. He enjoys activities like skiing, wakeboarding, water tubing, and has even been skydiving! The highlight of his career so far is getting to know the staff and building relationships with the students at Walnut Hills. We asked Nik if he'd rather fight one horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses. He answered: "100 duck-sized horses. Because at least they would be cuter than a horse-sized duck and I might be able to take a couple down before the rest took me out!"

Introducing our 2024 Walnut Hills Elementary Teacher of the Year, Alicia Zank! Alicia is a teacher through and through! She has taught for 14 years and has called Walnut Hills home for all of those years. 5th grade is her absolute favorite! When she's not at school, she stays busy with her husband and daughter going on adventures up north, snowmobiling, golfing, golfing, boating, and cruising. She is always reading a book or listening to a podcast! The highlight of her career so far has been having a part in the educational growth of students. Celebrating their successes at 5th grade graduation and then watching those students return as high school graduates is so rewarding! She's also felt privileged to work with many amazing individuals over the years. We asked Alicia which actress would play her in the movie of her life. She answered: "I don't have a specific actress in mind to play me in the movie of my life, but I would want Lin-Manuel Miranda to be the one to write the script and soundtrack. I'm a huge Hamilton fan and would be honored to have him lend his lyrical genius to describe the highs and lows of my life."
