Greenwood School Board Meeting

The Greenwood Community School Corporation held a school board meeting on September 16, 2026, which included a public hearing on a proposed deferred maintenance project related to storm damage repairs. The board discussed financing the project through a bond issuance estimated at $6.41 million with a 5% interest rate, potentially increasing the property tax rate by approximately 4 cents. The meeting also covered the district's budget presentation, highlighting an increase in debt service costs due to the bond and ongoing operational expenses such as utilities and bus replacements. The board reviewed capital projects and bus replacement plans, emphasizing fiscal responsibility and efforts to reduce expenditures, including a solar project to lower utility costs. No immediate board actions were taken, as the budget and bond resolutions are expected to be considered in a future meeting. Additionally, updates were provided on technology initiatives, including a new internet filtering system with parental controls, and various educational and operational reports were shared.
