The Taylorville School Board held their regular meeting Monday evening at 7PM.  This would be Dr. Greggory Fuerstenau’s final board meeting.  Only four of the board members were present: President Stephen Turner, Dr. George Freese, Dr Ronald Mizer, and Sarah Van Huss.  Dr. Greg Fuerstenau kicked off the meeting by thanking everyone for their support over the years.  Visitor comments included comments from a few former board members who served with Dr. Fuerstenau, and Mayor Bruce Barry thanking the leaving Superintendent for all he had done while he was there.  After approval of minutes and review of claims, Dr Fuerstenau went over the treasurer’s report and was proud to announce that Taylorville School District has a budget and that things will be handled well as he leaves for Dr. Chris Dougherty. A announcement was made by Dr. Fuerstenau that the Taylorville Education Support Staff Contract was approved.

Dr. Fuerstenau also made a recommendation concerning cyber-security highlighting the 21st century threats and how the School can stop it.  President Turner finished up the board meeting with Dr. Fuerstenau’s notes, who once again made a point of thanking everyone for their support.

The meeting wrapped up around 7:50PM.
