District overview

Greece Central School District

Funding structure, how it compares to peers, and where major projects stand.

A nine-member board governs Olympia and the rest of Greece Central

Districtwide governance with an Olympia-specific leadership transition

Greece Olympia High School is governed by the Greece Central Board of Education. The Board sets the district budget, approves senior leadership, adopts policies, and oversees major academic, safety, transportation, and facilities work affecting Olympia and the district's other schools.

Olympia leadership

The Board introduced Chuck LaRue as Olympia's new principal during the spring 2026 budget-adoption meeting.

District budget

The proposed 2026-27 budget totaled $335.4 million, up $17 million or 5.31%, with a 2.27% tax-levy increase within the tax cap.

Student experience

Olympia students described structured hall sweeps, conflict-management support, early-college career days, social-emotional lessons, and an 88.8% graduation rate in September 2026.

Current priorities

The district is implementing its 2026-27 operating plan while expanding early learning, behavioral supports, college and career pathways, and student activities.

Districtwide actions do not always identify how much funding or staffing reaches Olympia specifically, so school-level effects are stated only when the Board record names the school.
