Taylorville School Board Meets; Discusses Home Schooling Vs Remote Learning

The Taylorville School Board met on Monday evening to discuss plans for moving forward with the school year. One of the big focuses on the meeting was to talk about how in-class learning would look this year including the difference between home school and remote learning. Curriculum Director Anita Brown says that this year’s remote learning is going to be very different from last spring.

 

Dr. Chris Dougherty says that as of right now with the IHSA guidelines she doesn’t see how there will be competition this fall for sports. 

 

 

Dr. Dougherty also says that if you are planning on homeschooling your children this year, and you want to reenter your kids in school, there will be a district assessment.

 

Under old business, the fast track grant was not approved, as rules for the grant had been changed. Dr. Dougherty is hoping to refile at a later date. Online registration is open and has been open.  You are encouraged to register your children online.
