Summary
Director Kelly Zoellner told the board that Eisenhower, Lincoln, North, South, Washington and JHS moved to Commendable status and that Murrayville was awarded Exemplary (top 10% statewide with no underperforming subgroups); the board reviewed enrollment and discipline reports as well.
Kelly Zoellner, director of curriculum and instruction, presented the district’s 2024–25 academic data and highlighted school‑by‑school movement in state accountability status. Zoellner recorded that Eisenhower, Lincoln, North, South, Washington and Jacksonville High School moved to Commendable status; she said Murrayville has been awarded Exemplary status and is performing in the top 10% of the state with no underperforming subgroups. "I am excited to see what next year brings with the continued work the teachers are doing," the minutes record.
Zoellner also reviewed the enrollment report and the first‑quarter discipline report, noting a significant drop in incidents at the middle school which the principal attributed to consistent staff and procedures. Board members asked routine questions about vacancies and were told open positions are posted on the district website.
