like Mardi Gras and differ-ent balls you can attend. Our food is different. We do a lot of spicy food, but the culture is not that different. The people here are friendly, like in Lou-isiana.” Despite feeling at home in her new surroundings, separation from the military lifestyle she grew to know made adjusting in her career diffi cult. “It’s a completely different lifestyle, working in the mili-tary and being on the outside,” said Guice. “Adjusting was very hard. The hardest part was the regulations. In the military, you have strict regu-lations, and you follow them
to a T. At the post offi ce, you sometimes bend things to help the customer.” Eventually, the veteran settled in and grew to love her career, enough to drive 40 minutes to work every day. “The people keep me com-ing here. I like the people. I like working with the people here because everyone does their job,” said Guice. “We don’t take sick leave unless it’s necessary. Everybody does their job, and everyone knows what they have to do. And the people that come into the post offi ce are friendly. Not all, but most of them.” For Guice, her job is vital to
the community she serves. “People depend on their mail all the time. They get their checks and important everyday information,” she said. “So, the post offi ce is an essential job, and it needs to be done by people who are trustworthy.” One signifi cant thing Guice will miss is working during the holiday season -- her favorite time of the year. “I’ve always done the same thing. I’ve always been a clerk,” said Guice. “My favor-ite time of the year is Christ-mas because everyone comes in, and they’re happy and mailing out gifts. They’re hap-py and nice because you can
help make the holiday easier for them.” Guise’s life so far is segment-ed into three phases, pre-mili-tary, active military, and postal worker. Guice is now stepping into the next phase of her life – retirement. “My husband and I want to travel. I want to go to Puerto Rico and then visit some of my old Army buddies,” said Guice. “Everybody always tells me the water is so clear in Puerto Rico. I want to go into some of the underground caverns, too. I want to see my buddies, talk, and reminisce.”
GUISE Continued from Page A1
By ANTHONY FLORESStaff Writer Williamson County is enter-ing phase four of its Wilco For-ward Program. The program was established to distribute the $93 million the county received from the federal gov-ernment through the CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security) Act. Phase one focused on aiding small businesses, phase two on emergency services, and phase three focused on utili-ty aid. Phase four focuses on reimbursing funds to school districts for COVID expenses. The county also sits on a re-serve of $17 million. “We’ve been very conscious about our plan from the begin-ning. We received about $93 million through the CARES Act, and we’ve had that re-serve that’s a little less than 20 percent of the money from the beginning,” said Williamson County Treasurer Scott He-
selmeyer. “We did the small business program fi rst, and then we did assistance for our cities and our emergency ser-vice districts. We have done rent utility assistance that’s ongoing right now, and now we’re doing the school pro-gram.” Districts apply with the coun-ty to receive reimbursement. Applications have been sent to district schools, charter schools, and private schools. “So, it’s going to be a grant program, and the ISDs, charter schools, and private schools are eligible. I’ve been work-ing with all the school dis-tricts to put a plan together,” said Heselmeyer. “In a basic framework, we are reimburs-ing COVID-related expenses up to $100 per student. The schools are going to provide us with their enrollment numbers. We’ve come up with a system for that.” Liberty Hill ISD Superin-
tendent Steve Snell said the district is likely to receive as much as $549,000 based on enrollment, but the exact number of students based on County stipulations and offi -cial enrollment has not been determined. “We have to fi ll out the forms and request it,” Snell said. “It is to cover some of the costs from the pandemic and the strings attached is it is going to be based on our enrollment based on the October snapshot and the student has to live within the boundaries of Wil-liamson County.” The funds will not cover all COVID-related expenses in LHISD, as the district has projected it has spent about $149 per student so far on those things specifi cally, but Snell said the funds are a huge boost and something he is very grateful to the county for. “Counties, cities and even our federal government are
trying to help out small busi-nesses, and trying to help out other organizations, but Wil-liamson County is one of the very few counties in Texas that has released funds to schools,” he said. “The fact that it will touch every single school kid in Williamson County, that’s huge. This is the County step-ping up and taking care of kids. It is going to help us tre-mendously on our budget.” County Judge Bill Gravell said providing reimbursement to schools is critical. “Our schools have worked incredibly hard through this pandemic to keep our stu-dents safe while also keeping them engaged in learning,” said Gravell. “We have asked schools and teachers to do something that has not been done before on this scale. We must support them in this ef-fort through our CARES Act
