Ballot Issue Updates: The Journey Here

Presentation from Ballot Issue Updates: The Journey Here

Greeneview Local Schools will have a combined bond issue and permanent improvement (PI) levy on the November 5, 2024 ballot. The ballot issue will include the construction of a new middle school attached to Greeneview High School and additions to the current middle school to accommodate grades PK-4 in what will become the new Greeneview Elementary building.
 
In addition to moving all students out of the current Elementary building, the ballot issue would bring all students to Cottonville Road. Originally constructed in 1963, the current Elementary has served us well for over 60 years; the costs associated with maintaining an older building, however, are significant, especially within the roof, behind the walls, and under the ground in electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems that are costly to maintain as they age, often requiring hard-to-find parts and intensive labor. Our community has expressed a desire for thoughtful, proactive decision-making. The state has not only determined that it would be more cost-effective to replace than renovate but they are also willing and ready to taken on $10,014,830 of the cost of the co-funded project.
 
This is our third and final opportunity to partner with the Ohio Facilities Construction Commission (OFCC) on a co-funded project to address our aging elementary school. The OFCC’s 62% contribution leaves the local share at 38% as well as any additional costs associated with locally funded initiatives. It can take up to ten years before a district may have another opportunity to partner with the OFCC, and we cannot speculate what costs will be at that time.

Our Greeneview

Above, you'll find a graphic that symbolizes our work across the district. Whether you look at it from the inside out or the outside in, the Greeneview student remains at the center of it all, surrounded by the strategies we use to support the student both within our buildings and as a district through teaching and learning, facilities, and operations. At the same time, our work within the larger community and our partnerships with parents coincide with our work within the schools to develop a strong school culture. No matter which way you look at it, all of the pieces are better together. It all comes together to form what we've come to know as the "Our Greeneview" plan. 

The "Our Greeneview" plan has guided our work not only internally, but externally as well, as we consider the future of both our district and our facilities. Our focus on the Greeneview student has informed the master facility planning process and kept us grounded in our larger vision and goals for the district. The "Our Greeneview" plan has helped us to consider how our organization can grow as a whole and how we can accommodate for improvements in our facilities in a healthy, structured way.
