From the Classroom to the Board Room
January is School Board Recognition Month and Greenville County Schools is celebrating the contributions and service of our 12 School Board members. GCS trustees develop policies and make decisions on complex educational and social issues impacting the entire community. They bear responsibility for an annual budget of $620 million, 76,000 students, 10,000 employees and 106 facilities.
As a part of School Board Appreciation Month, board members will participate in an official signing of the South Carolina School Board Member Ethical Principles during their January school board meeting. By signing the principles, school board members publicly vowed to uphold effective governance principles and pledged to improve public education in their community.
