Teachers Live Here - Jessica Janiuk

Jessica Janiuk, Holland Middle School Psychologist,  is the latest recipient of a Teachers Live Here Grant!  She is receiving $27,300 for down payment assistance and an additional $2,500 to help with closing costs on her new home in the HPS district.

HPS is grateful to Jessica for her commitment to her students! 

Now that the middle school is my home building, participating in events in the community is often the best way for me to connect with the staff and families I formed relationships with in the various buildings during my time as an intern. This grant would also help my fiancé and I purchase our first home, where we hope to begin our family. With the home being within the district, it would allow us to enroll our children in these schools that I know will support their growth and development, as it did for me when I started at Holland Public Schools. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to apply, and I thank the committee members for considering me as I work to build my future here in the Holland community.  - Jessica Janiuk
