Dear Germantown Parents and Community Members,

Thank you to all community members that came out to pass our 2023-2024 budget. We are excited about the future of our District and the amazing direction we are moving. I would also like to congratulate Mrs. Teresa Repko and Mr. David Rifenburgh on being elected to the Board of Education for a four-year term.

Congratulations to our retirees, Vinessa Bowman, Sarah Meyers, Jeanne Oliviera, Dale Strong, Cheryl Trowbridge, Patti Penston, and Paul Hanway. Thank you for your dedicated service to our students and our community. We wish you the very best in your retirement.

June is a busy month with regents, finals, concerts, award ceremonies, moving-up ceremonies, and graduation. It is a month to celebrate the amazing year we had here at GCS.
