The Township High School District 211 Board of Education on Monday ratified the Northwest Suburban Special Education Organization (NSSEO) amended 2024-25 and proposed 2025-26 budgets and heard a detailed presentation about program enrollment, rising tuition rates and deferred facilities work.
NSSEO superintendent Mike Schnoor and assistant superintendent of business services Gavin McGinn told the board the Kirk School tuition rate will rise about 3.8% and the deaf-and-hard-of-hearing (DHH) program at Hersey will rise about 3.2%, increases that align with the organization27s collective-bargaining agreement. The board voted to ratify the budgets and to pay District 2201127s share.
The presentation emphasized why the rate changes were needed and what the budget will fund. "NSSEO has what's called a zero-balance budget," Gavin McGinn told the board. "So that means that our expenditures and revenues match identically. Everything zeroes out."
