Two schools to benefit from energy grant

Greenville Elementary School and McKenzie School will be receiving window replacements and HVAC systems to make them more energy efficient, with no cost to the Board of Education.

The expense will be covered by part of an Energy Conservation Grant awarded to the system.

The board voted to give permission to advertise for bids for the projects at their regular meeting last Thursday.
