The Greene County School District met in special session Tuesday night.

The Board approved $10 million of school infrastructure sales, service and use tax revenue bonds to J.P. Morgan with an interest rate of 1.3-percent, with an option to pay off the bond by 2026. The funds will be used for the middle school into a high school conversion project and the new high school project. 

Additionally, the Board approved a resolution to pay hourly and non-exempt employees during the public health emergency for COVID-19 from March 23rd through April 10th, while the schools are temporarily closed. In the event that school closure goes beyond April 10th, the Board will reconvene to discuss the issue. Finally, the Board adopted the multi-jurisdictional hazard mitigation plan as presented.
