The Greenville Public School District is giving students and their parents two opportunities to meet the new interim superintendent, Dr. Debra Dace, and the district’s administrative team this week.
The meet and greets will take place from 5:30-6:30 p.m. Wednesday McBride Pre-K Academy, 438 N. Poplar St., and from 5:30-6:30 p.m. Thursday at Greenville High School, 419 E. Robertshaw St.
Light refreshments will be provided at both sessions.
These meetings are held to give district students and parents an opportunity to not only meet the staff, but to also ask questions and hear what the interim and the administrative team have planned for the district as they approach the upcoming school year.
“The stakeholders will have an opportunity to meet me in person and share any questions or concerns about the districts or any particular school,” Dace said. “They will also get an update on the visions and goals for the school district and how they can support us.”
