D50 Announces $1,500 Bonus Check for All Employees

Greenwood School District 50 announced today it will recommend a $1,500 bonus check for all employees in the district. Employees will begin receiving their checks upon District 50 Board of Trustees approval on a budget amendment at the February Board meeting.

“Our budget is in a good place with a slightly above 30% surplus currently in our general fund,” Superintendent Steve Glenn stated. “I can’t think of a better way to use these funds than on our outstanding employees who have helped us successfully reopen our schools. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, we were able to offer three instructional options during the first semester. In spite of the challenges presented to us during these unprecedented times, our employees have stepped up in a huge way to make a difference in the lives of our students.” 

Board Chairman Ken Cobb said, “Our Board would like to thank all of our employees for all of their hard work this school year. We realize there have been so many unforeseen challenges due to the pandemic. We are extremely appreciative of the tremendous efforts of our faculty and staff educating and caring for students on a daily basis.”
