Election Day

 

On Election Day, Tuesday, April 1, 2025, Greenbrier Elementary School will be used as a polling place all day. We have the following procedures in place to ensure the safety of our students and staff:

  • The polling place for our school is our foyer.

  • Voters will only be allowed to enter through door 1 by the office.

  • Any door connecting our foyer to our school building will be locked.

  • We will hire a full-time building attendant to sit in the area.

  • A District Administrator will be on site that day.

  • CAP parents will enter using door 12.
  • EC students that use the front entrance will also use door 12 for arrival and dismissal for that day only.
  • Walkers will using door 12 for dismissal.
  • Late students should still use door 1 by the office.
  • All grades will have indoor recess.

We take the safety and security of our students and staff very seriously. And while these procedures will cause some disruption to our typical day, we are confident that students will continue to have a safe and engaging day of learning.
