Polling at GRE Polling at GRE

GRE is a new polling location for this upcoming election on May 5. We’ve been working with the Union County Board of Elections, District safety coordinators, and District operations to create a plan that we feel confident will cause minimal impact to our school day.


Student and staff safety continues to be our main priority and has been in the forefront of our planning. The voting will be in the gym and the public will be restricted from other areas within the school. As an additional safety measure, a Dublin police officer will remain on site for the duration of the school day along with frequent check ins from our district safety coordinators.


A Helpful Tip: If you are planning to vote at GRE, please be mindful of bus zones and student drop-off/pick-up traffic during the morning (approx. 8:50-9:15 AM) and afternoon (approx. 3:30- 3:50 PM).
