Principals highlight FAFSA help, academic recognitions and new programming
Summary
Principals reported district student successes — including FAFSA support for seniors, multiple Illinois State scholars and athletic-academic honors — and discussed new support programming (W.I.N.D.) and elementary activities.
During the principal reports segment, Miss Sanderson and other principals summarized recent student achievements and outreach programs.
Miss Sanderson noted a FAFSA session for seniors run with a college financial aid office and said the district was awarded platinum status from ISAT for VASFA compliance; she also listed student recognitions, including "We have 13 football and 8 volleyball players named to the LTC 20 25 academic hall conference teams." The report included that four students were named Illinois State scholars this year.
Other principals described elementary and middle-school activities: pumpkin-voting contests, community family nights, a W.I.N.D. program to give students focused time for specific subjects, and initiatives such as golf lessons for 3rd- and 4th-graders. Principals encouraged the public to view a classroom video posted to the district Facebook page and noted steady enrollment with minimal student loss.
Board members asked no substantive follow-up questions during these reports; the segment was informational.
