The Greene County School Board will meet twice tonight.

The Board will hold a work session at 5:15pm, during which they will hear a construction update of the new high school and career academy project, discuss the initial offer from the Greene County Education Association and review the Board’s counter offer for the master contract for next school year, and continue a discussion from last month of the minimum credits needed for extracurricular activities.

The regular board meeting will then start at 6:30pm. The meeting will begin with three public hearings, including: bids for the high school into a middle school conversion project, the 2021 fiscal year certified budget and next school year’s calendar. The Board will then consider approving all of the items following their respective public hearings. 

The Board will then discuss and consider purchasing a weather monitoring system and a Home Town Ticketing system. Next, they will consider for approval an e-rate purchase, an agreement with Coca-Cola/Atlantic Bottling Company, renting the Grand Junction Community Center for the summer lunch program, a middle school mental health fair speaker agreement, fundraisers, a request for a school permit within one-mile of the high school, fertilizer bids, a construction change order and board policy reviews. They will also set a public hearing for roof bids. The meeting will end in a closed session for the superintendent evaluation.

Both meetings will take place in the conference room of the administrative building in Jefferson.
